Awesome Spring accounts on Mastodon that posted recently.
Spring
Rob Williamson
@[email protected]I program #SpringBoot web services and have now managed to avoid managing people. I used to program dev tools & before that, program mobile phones.
Once ran the same early Windows 8 build instance on both a hypervisor and native boot.
Old enough to remember #Symbian #C++.
I really like painting miniature figures like those produced for #warhammer, but am not so keen on #GamesWorkshop.
#OnePageRules is my current #TableTop #Wargaming jam.
Involved in some kind of computer bullshit.

Proud and concerned father, grandfather, dog dad, and atheist. Emigrated from New Mexico high desert to New Jersey lake, spring 2022. Used to be a whitewater canoeist, now happy paddling a quiet lake. ClassicPress/WordPress developer; websites for real estate agents. I smoke a pipe, therefore I'm a philosopher.

Profile pic is me with my fluffy sheep Ruffles. Header is about a hundred sheep who decided to form a ring on the downs one day. I'm not that interested in sheep, really.
