#promosky 🧵 Life is about the journey, not the destination

🖤 I’m self-diagnosed as autistic 🖤 I have co-morbidities of cyclothymia, hypermobility, a connective tissue disorder and nine food intolerances 🖤 I am 6’9 with short-sightedness rated at -10 🖤 I have C-PTSD due to being neurodivergent in a neurotypical world

🖤 I have a career spanning most of the last 30 years, flipflopping between being a developer & tester 🖤 I’ve also worked as a scrum master and UI designer 🖤 I think React and JavaScript frameworks have served their purpose and now need to disappear for good (and don’t get me started on Tailwind)

🖤 I think most shipped software is awful, due mainly to normalised dysfunction and resistance to change 🖤 I believe in agile software development as originally promised, not the microwaterfall it has become

🖤 I’m writing at least two non-fictional books and thinking about fiction 🖤 I’ve used poetry to stave off the darkness, in the past; I’m thinking about writing more of that, too 🖤 I’m building or thinking about at least 3-4 software products
