> Why Tech? I guess I've always enjoyed being around technology. I've been using computers as long as I've been around. As a kid in the mid 90s my brother and I used to install Debian on old powerpcs we had lying around the house for fun. I've built PCs from components for myself. I run Linux on the desktop. In college I took some tech courses (CS 101, Intro to Databases) and I always did enjoy automating repetitive tasks via scripting. >What do you really want to do in your life? I want to have a nice life with my fiancee, I guess. I like understanding things. I enjoy knowing something at the level that I can explain it very well as opposed to knowledge of something just at the level where I can use it. At some level I do like creating things too, but I seem to have a very high inertia a lot of the time. I just end up thinking of ideas as opposed to implementing them. I love working with computers because software can things so easily when you just provide the idea. >What things to you find yourself doing when no one's paying you? I daydream. I listen to music. I think of new things to cook. I ride my bike around town. Maybe I'll complete some intro challenges on a site like codecademy for fun. I'll read HN, Slashdot. I've always been intrigued by the future of technological progress. I'm excited by google's self-driving cars.
