    I’ve known I was coming to computer something even from a very young age, and when I read ‘The Soul of a New Machine’ by Tracy Kidder in high school I had even done some consulting.

    It was like a window directly on my future professional life. I did EE at school and have been in chip design for over 20 years. This Tracy is not a computer scientist. He is a writer, but his effective reporting of the world is so spot on.
