Happy International Programmers’ Day!

Today our developers share their thoughts about working as a software developer and what does it look like to be a programmer.

What’s your story of your everyday programmer’s life? Let us know in comments below!

“Being a developer to me is the rush and excitement of learning and trying the newest technology, it’s the magic of making things work the way you want.
It gives me the freedom to express myself, put my creativity to test. It’s also late evenings, idea-struck at night, building something big through small steps, doing something truly useful for the client’s company!” Ignas

“Working as a software developer to me is like working on a construction site but in an office. You have to adhere to strict standards and you are building a large system which depends on more people than you alone, essentially, a team.” Tomas

For the 256th day of the year, we’ve also gathered our favorite programming-related quotes. Enjoy and stay inspired!

“Programs must be written for people to read, and only incidentally for machines to execute.” Hal Abelson

“Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live.” Martin Golding

“Give a man a program, frustrate him for a day. Teach a man to program, frustrate him for a lifetime.” Muhammad Waseem

“If you’ve never programmed a computer, you should. There’s nothing like it in the whole world. When you program a computer, it does exactly what you tell it to do. It’s like designing a machine — any machine, like a car, like a faucet, like a gas-hinge for a door — using math and instructions. It’s awesome in the truest sense: it can fill you with awe.” Cory Doctorow
