You mean the "Yomega Zone"? I had no idea someone had uploaded it to YouTube. That's awesome. (Link for those who are curious: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Znt3DVV1XZE)

I'm still a software engineer from 9-5 for EMC (soon to be merged with Dell). Valerie and I run http://theclunkerjunker.com where we buy and sell junk and used cars across the country, either for scrap value or at auction. She does that full time and then some.

Cool to hear from you, Mike! Hope all is well with you as well.

Welcome to the fold, from a Dell software engineer.

Oh, nice! Everyone here is sort of freaking out about it. No one really knows how it will affect us. I am pretty happy that all my options will automatically and immediately vest though

That's the videos! I know years back there was a different one you posted, either a competition you were in, and/or a commercial you were in. This Yomega zone was a little bit boring but still so funny to see you as a young little kid!!

thanks dude, finally officially working as a software engineer as well, moved to Denver a little over a year ago. Curious what kind of software do you work on? I've been doing web based applications - healthcare industry, and now educational assessment... Just wondering what sorts of languages you use and what sorts of projects are in works at a company like that.

Clunkerjunker is cool, is that something you set up yourself to tie various buyers together? Or do you have a lot of active work dealing with the cars directly? Sounds like a cool gig you have set up between each other.

EMC makes enterprise level storage, though we're trying to capitalize on the midrange which is where the Dell merge makes sense. Lately I've been pretty much doing full stack development. Lots of Javascript for front end work, C++ for middle layers, and bash and Perl for platform level stuff. I've been sort of leading a project from top to bottom while still being pretty hands on.

oh derp, I know EMC, just figured it was an acronym for some third-party smaller company, not THAT EMC. cool.

how much of a joke is PHP these days, from your view of the industry? I'd imagine the C++ is due to the hardware implementations?
