If I'm not mistaken, I think Zed Shaw was an american soldier before becoming a programmer.




Steve Yegge was in the Navy before going programming, blogging, etc. as well. In fact, the same nuclear Navy where I had my start (though I was programming before I joined).


Royal Marine for four years. You're right about Zed now you mention it! Did you teach yourself?
