#introduction
Before retiring, I was an aerospace engineer (Apollo, Viking Mars lander), software developer, and tech writer. But that was to pay the bills. I think of myself as a writer -- mostly sf, some horror, some mystery, some (yet unpublished) fantasy. Lots of details at www.dvorkin.com
My wife and I also help writers self-publish. You can find out more at www.dldbooks.com
In theory, I should be writing much more now that I'm retired. In practice, that's not happening. I blame the Internet.
@DavidDvorkin In Aerospace industry myself and, damn, that's an impressive resume.

This reminds me of this old GitHub upload I cam across on Hacker news

Aesthetically, it's very simple in comparison to my own. In actual experience- I feel dwarfed in comparison due to the quality.
@lucifargundam @Euclid42 Ah, memories!
I learned FORTRAN on the job at NASA. I knew nothing about computers and had to learn very quickly under considerable pressure. It's a good thing I was in my 20s at the time.
