1 oh, no2 ======3 4 my one year experience as a software writer has not been so nice, but really5 you should ask someone else with more experience. i've only worked a little as6 a freelancer (whatever that means) on some random websites. i've been learning7 on the job (whatever that means).8 9 i wish i could say i was young i needed the money but i'm not even that young10 anymore. 11 it's absurd that i can't find a job, and that i can't hold on to the jobs that12 i hate.13 14 + boredom15 there are probably other ways of saying it, but it's also fine to say that16 i've been bored.  i don't know why. there have been projects i'm not ashamed17 of, but most of the time it hasn't been like that.18 19 it's depressing to see that some cliches are true. the offices of lab rats20 typing looking for the key of the cookie, waiting to be rewarded with a21 cookie, and kept awake with coffee.22 23 where does this quote come from?24 25 i could have passed out in front of the computer and no one would have26 noticed. the feeling that no one knows what they're doing. the obscure files27 that you can find inside of some computers.  what i would do is open them for28 as long as i'd stand it, close my eyes, press some random keys, close them and29 try to forget about it. there's determinacy in software insofar as you can30 work like this and nothing breaks.31 32 # after this, for me, code can't be about contemplation or perception. there's33 # no way out, no mountain to escape to, no place to contemplate my mark-up.  i34 # wish it was, but it can't be only about the code. if it was only about the35 # code, i wouldn't need to go out of my room.36 37 after one year of writing software, it's good to go back to the first things i38 wrote. maybe there is something of crawling into my bed and pulling up the39 covers about it. probably not. i'm just happy. it was great to have imagined40 an introductory perl manual where the examples and exercises deal with41 generative groff mark-up.RSS Atom
