I really don't like filling out these things.

I've been using Linux for over 10 years (started using it around 2003.)

I entered code for the first time on a vic-20 in 3rd grade. Since then I've learned basic and how to operate computers pretty dang good. I've worked with the Timex Sinclare 1000, Atari 65XE, Commodore 64 and the Apple IIe just to name a few good ol' relics.

I've worked with MS Dos 3.3 and even created .btm files in 4dos. Edited autoexec.bat and config.sys files. I've also managed to learn quite a few languages over the years. Modula-2 and Turbo Pascal are a couple of the old ones.

Fast forward a decade. I know how to program in php, python and bash. In the realm of databases I can write queries for MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite. I also speak MongoDB (although I dispise it because I've never come across a project that I've inherited that I didn't eventually need a good ol' fashioned JOIN statement.)

I prefer to write in python over php. The one thing that I like the most about python is it's ability to pass a keyword argument and set default values for other arguments.

I'd rather use Flask or Django with gunicorn, nginx and supervisord. Than nginx and php.

In the realm of javascript & js libraries I've worked with jquery, backbone, underscore, bootstrap and I'm starting to learn angular. I love angular. It gives me a brain-gasm.

I understand html5, css enough to get by. However I am not a designer and I'm kinda lacking when it comes to knowing what will break in which browser. There are so many ... Firefox, Chrome, IE, Opera, Safari and on top of that you have Android and IPhone. IPHONE DOES NOT HAVE AN ONCLICK.

I'm familiar with the following libraries in python. Pygtk, Gstreamer, SQLalchemy and Flask.
