Seth... Coder


Well it's been a while since I last posted anything on here, I could not really think of anything to post. Go figure.
What I have been doing is thinking about what I want this blog to become. I want to give my knowledge back to the world and to help aspiring coders. I want to share some of the pitfalls that I fell into while learning so that others do not waste thier time.
I am going to start posting some stuff about C++, PhP, and other programming languages and/or scripting tools. I've been dabbling with this sort of thing ever since my loving mother bought me a Commodore 64 when I was only 12 years old. Back then, Microsoft BASIC 2.0 was the operating system. I tore the machine apart and learned assembly language using the Commodore's 6510 (6502 based CPU). For whatever reason, I became obsessed with learning how it worked and how to make it do whatever I wanted it to do. Over the years I have upgraded my machines. C128, Amiga, 386, 486, Pentium, AMD, now um... Linux, FreeBSD, etc. All the while I have studied in great detail how to program the machines in various languages. I was using BBSs with 300 baud modems to connect to the FIDOnet in 1986.
By far, my favorite language is C/C++ so that is where I am going to primarily steer on this adventure. If I get off course with some wierd language like Ruby please someone talk some sense into me. If you know me please hit me in the face. (Yes that was a dig at Ruby)
So anyhow, I'll get started here.
