the blue badge... Today's one of those 'mixed emotion' days in that I'm both happy and a little sad to be writing that I have reached my 2500th blog post and it coincides with me moving on from my role at Microsoft after almost 20 years with the company.

For the past year or so, I have been working in Microsoft's Commercial Software Engineering group with top customers & partners helping them to build Mixed Reality/HoloLens applications on the Universal Windows Platform.
This involves project work where we go from envisioning, through to requirements & on into implementation where I work mainly in C# and .NET with some Unity but my background comes from C/C++.
Prior to this, I have been at Microsoft for almost 20 years working both in consulting and evangelism around our development languages, tools, frameworks and platforms. Early days, this was mainly C/C++ native development but mostly turned into C#/.NET over time.
I spent the previous decade working as a C/C++ developer across Windows, Unix and other operating systems and I also acted as technical lead and development manager for software products.
I started to write code in 1982, graduated with a 1st class degree in Computer Science in 1991 and have worked in the industry since.
