I am a professional software developer in Stoney Creek, ON, working in a Windows environment controlling real time hardware.

I am a co-owner of Steel Hammer Games, specializing in collectable card games and related events.

I have also developed shareware products, specifically BBS games, a long time ago in a Pascal far far away.

comment Why are part-time jobs in programming an anomaly?
@Mikle I think you're going to have to prioritize what you want. Co-workers are not really there to teach you, though that happens quite frequently. If you're still learning your craft, you might want to dive in and work full time. There will be time for side projects, just less of it.

@Stewart If the current edits to your question don't match what you meant to say, please feel free to edit it again. One problem of this format is that it is sometimes a bit of a guessing game.

comment Pronunciation for hexadecimals
[...] "exception is if I'm dictating code. [...] read out the exact text, so 0x10 would be "oh ex one oh" ... What I said would be "hex one oh" or "hex ten"

comment Pronunciation for hexadecimals
When dictating numbers I often find it more helpful to follow the convention of the language I'm dictating into, for example in C, to save the typist from having to cursor back over the text they just input to add the prefix (one oh hex 1 0 back back 0x)...
