I make things for people... and if the tools don't work right, then I persistence hunt down the bugs and make the technology bend to my will.

The computer is not an object of worship... it is a tool users must deal with to get their jobs done... that tool should reliably and predictably work with as minimal fuss on their part as possible.

My language of choice is Lazarus/Free Pascal, but I'll do whatever is required to get the job done.
