Found the pretentious CS undergrad/junior dev. Sure, there's an element of creativity and craftsmanship in software development, but come on already.

You've found "the pretentious CS undergrad/junior dev" and I've found somebody who has no fucking clue what they're talking about. So we are even.

I design and implement software products from scratch for various clients. Some I own and it brings me some extra money. Been doing it since 80s. Products range - various middleware, enterprise backends, desktop multimedia applications, deep sea scanning, firmware for microcontrollers, device control and real time data processing etc. etc.

From scratch? Assembly scratch or transistor scratch?

Do you sell your art by the inch or the hour?
