RonkLogan’s Blog

This is a bit of an eclectic blog. I’m a software engineer by trade, so I’ll be posting various articles on programming tips and tricks. I have a 3-D printer, and I like to fiddle with Arduino/Raspberry Pi hobby electronics – so fun projects on those fronts. I’m a big movie fan in general. And I’ll probably drop some short stories or poems every now and then as the mood strikes me. Anyhow, have at it.
