About James David Meruga

Programming is what made us reach the topography of Powehi,M87Yet another embodiment by it.Ever since I was a little kid, technology has been fascinating me. I still remember sitting in front of an unknown computer, running on celeron with a 250 Mhz brain, using it as notepad for list of existing games that would work on, though only DAVE ran. As I went through the BASICs, it was almost magic, being able to get the computer to do whatever! wanted, just by typing in these funny little symbols, limited only by my own imagination and ingenuity. Time passed and micro-processor grew substantially moving from a 250 Mhz brain to a record breaking 8.429 gz (overclocked 8 cores CPU). This beguiling carried me throughout my degree. I latched on to any ideas for projects I could get, moving from "Hello World" in C, all the way to becoming a developer, with dozens of projects in between. I learned C, then C++, not by tearing through any books, but by taking projects headon. I could find on anything remotely related to software development. I was insatiable.So, now, in industry, this passion remains with me. There's certainly yet more to learn, yet more problems to solve, and yet more to build. And for this, I am very grateful
