Working With Rails

My resume is available at: http://nolan.eakins.net/resume.html

From my résumé:

“I have been doddling with programming, operating systems, servers, and web design since the mid-nineties. During that time I have become a proficient and disciplined programmer in a handful of languages, a capable [Gentoo] Linux admin, and a rusty graphic designer.

“Sometime around the start of 2006 I drank the Rails kool-aid, which caused me to nearly forget C++ and to shudder at the sight of PHP. As a result my focus came back to creating web applications and creating the next Google. Thanks to Rails and the surrounding buzz, I’ve found myself creating, contributing to the creation of, and/or setting up Linux production environments for brand new Rails applications.

“While I’ve been living and breathing lots of Ruby these last two years, that doesn’t mean that my knowledge is forgotten or static. I still retain some working knowledge of C/C++, XMPP, OpenGL, and other technologies that I spent a signifigant amount of time using prior to Rails. Recently I’ve begun exploring Erlang and creating circuits based around an Arduino.”
