I have been a Software Engineer for the past two decades - and have recently started blogging here. Most of the time I work for company projects - that are proprietary in nature and cannot be published. I would say, about 90% of my time goes in doing this kind of work, that I can only talk about when I have left the company. Sometimes I come across interesting subjects that are not surrounded with legal restrictions, and I put them here.
Recently I have found new interest in Robotics, that used to be my passion back in the late eighties and early nineties. That subject had been suppressed in the Technology world due to lack of computing power and tools - though industrial robots had progressed at a decent pace in the manufacturing industry. However, in the past few years interest in that subject has resurfaced within the common public due to the advancement of software tools like Deep Learning, Reinforcement Learning, Robot Operating System and various open-source tools put up by companies in the Autonomous Vehicle space, and also advancement in hardware like Graphic Processing Units. My quest to pick up knowledge on all these subjects will show up in these blogs with time.
I believe it makes sense again to gear up for the new generation by brushing up on all the old knowledge and applying them to the new world. One really cannot watch this revolution from the sidelines - and not be part of it.
