It's obvious when things belong together and when they don't. But there's a gray area in between that gets me stuck sometimes.
I'm talking about mixing my personal posts on the same website that has my professional links. Like it or not, my personal views can affect my professional standing.
With that in mind, I'm contemplating splitting this site up. If you have an opinion about it, I'd love to hear it.
I'm Derek Chin and I'm very happy to be here. Life is a journey and an adventure, and I tend to be the "Big Picture" guy. (I ask silly questions like: "How does this help me and society in the long run?") I have lofty ideals and goals, and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make it happen. This is a personal blog, so please excuse the tangents I go on, or the type of language I use once in a fucking while. I enjoy making music, doodling, and movie-hopping. Yeah I do.
XHTML/CSS/PHP/JS/MySQL/Ruby(on Rails) is the name of the game. I've had a great experience at very different companies and environments.
Here is a complete list of my work. I am currently available to take on projects. Contact me.
