How many coders, devs, programmmers, IT peeps, technical design folks are also musicians and/or seriously in pursuit of music lifelong? Curious to know as for more than 30 years in tech I see a lot of crossover.

Impressive. Walk me through the various fretboards if you want I'd like to know. I don't recognize a couple there.

Cool choices in instruments there. I relate to the tenor centric as well, trained voice is Soprano but natural tenor voice and hear to tenor range sounds first. Interesting stuff!

Voice was always first musically as well as just verbally. I love to sing but I especially love singing with others. Strong vocalists are always welcome in my world!

I hope you will get back to it. I suspect it will help with life stressors. I found it helps me for what it's worth.

I’m not sure about “in pursuit” of music, but that was my major. I’ve been in software engineering my whole adult life with very little music, sadly. I have bills to pay 😆

Now sure. But in 1993 nobody was making bank much less net worth from early HTML and Lynx on a terminal using modems. That the web would be a source of income much less be developed or designed beyond text content? I remember a Pez dispenser home page for collectors. Now eBay. 😂
