The essay originally appeared in Whole Earth magazine in 1997 and has been recontextualized in this software development publication. http://tc.eserver.org/24707.html http://tc.eserver.org/24707.html Resumes may seem like something of a mundane topic, but after spending the last few weeks wading through resumes from software developers, it is clear to me that most developers need help with their resumes. This impression is backed up by many past resume reading experiences. While I have come across very few truly awful resumes, the majority of the resumes I have read in the last week have been substandard. Only a few have been what I would call really well done. http://tc.eserver.org/24708.html http://tc.eserver.org/24708.html There is a direct line between the abstraction embodied in our code and the reality of the people who will come into contact with that code. Methodologies and managers are beside the point—a distraction from the real issue. http://tc.eserver.org/24709.html http://tc.eserver.org/24709.html Software is not just an abstraction that exists in isolation. When I write code, it's not just about me, the code, the operating system, and the database. The impact of what I do when I develop software reaches far beyond those things and into people's lives.
