If musicians were devs:

"I'm a Fender Stratocaster player, with 10 years' experience playing major chords, minor chords, 7th chords,, the major scale in A, E and D, the blues scale in A, E and D (see my leetnote and shredderrank profiles for all the scales and chords I know). My tech stack experience includes Marshall Plexi and JCM amps, BOSS Blues Driver (BD-2), EHX Memory Man, BOSS Chorus CE-2, Dunlop Cry Baby.

What kind of music do I play? I'm sorry. I don't understand the question."

@jasongorman @dylanbeattie is a polyglot coder and musician 😄
@Henriksen @jasongorman @dylanbeattie But I don't recall Dylan having a strat... 🤔 All the rest of his experience clearly counts for nothing: we're after strat players! 🎸

@kevlin @Henriksen @jasongorman please find my CV attached.

Also, the preferred term for a guitarist/programmer is “Marshall stack developer” 😉

@kevlin @Henriksen @jasongorman I actually have two theories about why so many developers are also guitar players.

One is that certain kinds of brain cope well with intangible abstractions like harmony and recursion.

The other is that we were all lonely, socially awkward teenagers who spent way too much time doing things we could do at home in our bedrooms that didn’t require going out or having any friends.
