FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
What is this blog about?
I write my personal thoughts in the blog and maintain my software projects here. Sometimes I will react to political things as well. Mainly, this blog is about C++ development and related topics. But yeah, I tend to go off topic sometimes.
Who are you?
My real name is Swen Kalski. For development, I use the handle El Dockerr because I hate Docker - it was a pun by my colleagues. And , well I, I also write novels under the pen name Swen Kalini. So I'm a professional dissociative identity disordered developer and author by heart.
How long have you been a developer?
I've been a developer for about 25 years now, primarily working with C++ and various other technologies. I started programming with assembly back in the early 90s. Okay - this means I'm getting old and my first "Hello, World!" was on a Commodore 64 over 35 years ago.
I don't like what you do here. What should I do?
No problem! There are plenty of other blogs out there. Here are some searches to help you find one:
Why is this site so plain?
Because simplicity is beautiful. No tracking, no cookies, no JavaScript bloat. Just content. Fast and accessible. To be honest, I also dislike modern web design trends. I think this is why I prefer writing novels and code instead of web design.
What do you do in real life?
I work as a hardware integration engineer for a famous company in Malta. I made my B.Sc in computer science and actually do my B.Sc in mathematics.
Can I contact you?
