|---|
| 41 | been programming computers since 1976. He loves to do it.</p> |
|---|
| 42 | |
|---|
| 43 | <p>His first major professional experience was at <a href= |
|---|
| 44 | "http://apple.com">Apple Computer</a>. In 1988 he led the team that rewrote |
|---|
| 45 | the Macintosh Finder in C++. Before that project was completed, he was |
|---|
| 46 | shanghaied to be the technical lead for the System 7 project (these days |
|---|
| 47 | they would call it "Mac OS 7"). The group he formed to help him do that, |
|---|
| 48 | the Blue Meanies, is still a <a href= |
|---|
| 49 | "http://www.cupertino.de/pages/archiv/EasterEggs/BlueMeanies.html">legend</a> |
|---|
| 50 | in the Apple community.</p> |
|---|
| 51 | |
|---|
| 52 | <p>Since Apple, Darin has worked at <a href= |
|---|
| 53 | "http://www.generalmagic.com">General Magic</a> as an architect of the |
|---|
| 54 | <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=Magic+Cap">Magic Cap</a> OS, used |
|---|
| 55 | the moniker <a href="http://bentspoon.com">Bent Spoon Software</a> to do |
|---|
| 56 | consulting, and helped start Eazel, a company that worked to make Linux |
|---|
| 57 | easier to use and developed the Nautilus graphical shell for <a href= |
|---|
| 58 | "http://www.gnome.org">GNOME</a>. Since 1997, he has worked from his home |
|---|
| 59 | in Los Angeles, CA, collaborating with clients and coworkers in other |
|---|
| 60 | locations.</p> |
|---|
| 61 | |
|---|
| 62 | <p>He prefers to use and program Macintosh computers with C++. But work on |
|---|
| 63 | the GNOME project is best accomplished with a non-Macintosh PC. (That's why |
|---|
| 64 | Darin is sitting in front of <a href= |
|---|
| 65 | "http://boost.sourceforge.net/photos/darin_adler.jpg">two computers</a>.) |
|---|
| 66 | The other people working on the GNOME project don't like C++, so he's |
|---|
| 67 | writing a lot of C code these days.</p> |
|---|
| 68 | |
|---|
| 69 | <p>The <a href="http://boost.sourceforge.net/photos/darin_adler.jpg">larger |
|---|
| 70 | version</a> of his picture shows him hard at work with his C++ guru, his |
|---|
| 71 | daughter Sophia.</p> |
|---|
| 72 | |
|---|
| 73 | <p>He has hobbies and stuff but you don't want to read about that here.</p> |
