First post of the new year!

Was not going to bother this week, however imma tryin'. The new place I work for do a lot of java which conflicts with my c#, asp.net, visual studio experience. Making the most of it, it now looks like I will have to learn java and clojure. Seems a shame to throw all that work away.

Suggested to me that I can move from test to developer by taking the oracle certified developer exam.

It is nice to work with developers regularly now as we get to talk about different computing topics rather than strictly on topic working remotely. Talking of different architectures Endianness
came up.

I am now on twitter, there seems to be a high noise to signal ratio for some developers I am following. Some good has come from it already, the Not Just Code Monkeys presentation, quite fun and interesting about the use of dark patterns by certain companies. 

Researching clojure, good youtube video by Tim Ewald Clojure: Programming with hand tools which contained very little clojure and a lot of craftsmanship. I did find it quite funny with the oh it is not in visual studio so does not exist.
