    Started as a front-end guy (HTML, CSS, JS/jQuery) with a Mickey Mouse BA and sh*t grades, then worked with PHP and MySQL at a tiny web design shop. Now I'm getting to where I want to be, working at a decent sized but very young mobile payments company, working primarily with Ruby and Postgres, and getting good full-stack experience.

    Ultimately hoping to launch my own product and make a living out of that. I have a few ideas bouncing around and am nearly finished a proof of concept for one application. We shall see :) Really happy in my current position, so I'll just keep working on my own stuff in the evenings til I get somewhere with it!

    Full-stack web and mobile development; lead dev in a couple of startups at the moment. One of them is bound to take off and make me millions any day now.

    Spend most of my time with PHP and Javascript.

    Not so much, people won't pay to look at silly arguments but Rule #34 says you can make a living selling images of women pulling each others hair. (Being married, I can't understand why, but I'm assured that's true by those in the know).


    Back on-topic, DB2 kernel developer working on their disaster recovery stuff, pretty much all in C++, with Perl for tests and some shell scripting and python for ancillary doo-dads.

    (yes, that's a technical term).

    Hmm, something seems different...

    My job flip flops between a large C++ code base and a fledgling .Net one that interfaces with it as well as lots of other glue parts in various languages.

    Dropped in at the deep end on stuff like Java EE, Spring, Hibernate nearly 2 years ago for a multinational financial company and I'm still trying to get my head around it! Went from application support which I was great at to developer where I didn't have a clue what I was doing, I was way out of my depth for the 1st year but it was a good way to learn I suppose.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,324 ✭✭✭chrislad


    Currently a 3rd year, though since I've finished my exams, technically 4th year, CompSys student in UL. Mainly Java and Java EE, with some C++ and Android in there too. Considering C# for my FYP.

    Sounds interesting! Can you send me a PM with details (I assume it was for PC unless you hacked an Xbox!)
