The long version

No straight line. I took the jobs that came, and each one taught me something I still use. Everything I know about software I learned on my own.

How I work

how I work

  1. I split a problem until each piece is small enough to check.
  2. A result I can't reproduce doesn't count yet. I run it again.
  3. I ask for the source: of a model, of a report, of my own claims.
  4. I compete only with my own work from yesterday.
  5. The smallest unit is a pair. I work best next to someone who argues with me.
