I'm confused first he says, "I’M DONE WITH WRITING CODE FOR OTHER PEOPLE.", but two paragraphs later he says, "All of my work comes by referral now, and I have an agent". So what exactly is he saying? That he just does other kinds of work besides software development now?
If that is the case then why is one 'whoring one self out' and the other is not?
- mrbgty 14y agoWell of course it sounds bad when you put it that way (using all caps when quoting him)
- lindenr 14y agoWhat? In the original it was written in all caps as well.
- peteforde 14y agoDisclaimer: I'm not a type expert. It's technically not written in all caps, the font that my blog theme uses for bolding renders as capital letters. My personal jury is out on whether this is okay or not. Your comment leans me towards "no".
- lindenr 14y agoIt does seem a bit more forceful than bold to me; maybe you could have a separate 'bold' font and a 'really really bold' font?

- usistwo 14y agoPete's work consists now of being the technology and business strategy consigliere to various CEOs and other interesting people. If you'd like to meet with him. Let me know. I'm the agent, Ted Pearlman, he refers to in his post. http://usistwo.com/contact http://usistwo.com/contact And I pay for the plane fare. :D
- peteforde 14y agoAs Ted already explained, I'm advising companies now. I enjoy this work greatly. Programming is my hobby, now. It's fun and it informs how I work.
