Philosophy is the art of learning and I have been immensely lucky to find another field in software development that rests on that same core principle. Development is similar to philosophy in that it is often learning about learning. As a lifelong student I have satisfied my curiosity by tackling subjects in school that would allow me to do my greatest good for the world, in addition to my involvement in the worlds of stand-up comedy and live music. My interest in politics/law, the entertainment industry, and development show my interest in leaving this world a better place than I found it. As with software development, becoming ‘better’ at these subjects is not solely based on attaining new specific facts, it is more about learning process and how to explore and do new things.
