Why Web Development Is Complex
I keep hearing things like “programming is easy” and “everyone should code”! These are both interesting, kind of misleading statements. The actual core part of programming — actually writing code, is perhaps not that hard. Writing simple code is, relatively, simple. Many more people can, and should, probably learn to do that. Actually being a good developer is vastly different (and massively more complex).
It’s a worthy goal for people to get into development, and I love that more and more folks are, but you should also set your expectations realistically if you’ve never coded anything before. You can learn some basics pretty quickly, but you have a lot to learn before you will be fully proficient in a real development environment.

Personal Location Tracking
I’ve been pretty fascinated with the idea of recording my own location for a while now. I started using Foursquare at SXSW in 2009 and have mostly continued to do so since then (I have over 3,700 check-ins). You can see my check-ins being syndicated back to this website (using Keyring Social Importers ), and if you scroll back through the history of the main page, you’ll get maps aggregating a few check-ins at a time.

Automattic, 5 Years In
On May 11 (today) in 2009, I started full time at Automattic . I’ve written about my experiences over the years, and marked the occasion each year in some small way . Let’s continue the tradition.
This year has actually been a particularly big year. Probably the headliner happened only a week ago; Automattic raised $160 million , on a valuation of $1 billion. That’s a lot of money. That’s a large valuation, and it feels kind of weird to be employee #35 of a company of that scale. We’re now at 247 employees, and we span 30[1] different countries. Whoah.
