The Charette Project

I have found that my new son Alexander enjoys my singing. After overhearing my version of Hush, Little Baby, my wife downloaded and printed out the "real" lyrics for the song so that I won't confuse our son with my unpublished version:
And if that mockingbird won't sing,
Papa's gonna buy you diapers that won't cling.

I am a proud new father. The other day I was driving when I heard a commentary on NPR by Marion Winik on motherhood. I though of my wife Elizabeth when I heard this.

While I am staying home marveling at my new baby, I have started working my way through Generative Programming: Methods, Tools, and Applications by Krzysztof Czarnecki and Ulrich Eisenecker. It is a very-advanced programming book which but I am interested by a new (to me) approach at programming in C++: using template instantiations to generate code. Take a look at it if you are into C++.

In architecture, a charette is a quick design process.

: Name:Michael Scherotter; Location:Fairfax, California, United States

I was educated as an architect but I found my passion in software architecture and development. Many skills that I have learned in my architectural education have enabled me to excel at designing, building, and explaining software systems:

The ability to change scales and my point of view from the micro to the macro.
The ability to think in three dimensions and draw what I am visualizing.
The ability to organize and manage complex projects and systems.
Lateral thinking and creative problem solving.
