My professional interests are cloud and big data technologies, machine learning, and software development. I like to read source code and research papers to understand how stuff works.

I guess it all started with a programmable computer and then people started building stuff. As soon as somebody "invented" assembler, you could use that to build a C compiler and linker. Then you could rewrite the compiler in C and compile it with the assembly compiler.
People used what they have and in parallel built more tools / abstractions to make it easier to build complex systems. The problem with that is that every layer of abstraction might make it easier to write a piece of software, but it does not make it simpler. The complexity is still there.
And building an operating system is not an easy task. I mean there are thousands of developers busy doing that since decades and you are still lucky if your printer or scanner works...

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
