Retired electrical engineer and software developer. Many years developing SCADA, data collection, data transmission, encryption, and data analysis applications using Windows and .Net.

Now switching to ObjectiveC and liking it very much. Also becoming a major fan of Python and Qt.

Switched to Java. I like it better than ObjC or Python.

Ten years ago I started development on an app to collect geophysical data from oil and gas wells, encrypt it, and transmit it to remote servers. I wish I knew about Java then. Had I written it in Java, we could have run it on embedded devices using Linux as easily as it would run on client computers using Windows.
