Nicolás Jorge Dato
I’m a software developer with 10+ years of professional experience. My main expertise is the C programming language in Linux, using multi-threading and inter-process communication, in particular for the broadcast industry. In all these years I have also worked a lot with Perl, Bash, and Python. Previously, I had worked with Java for 2 years for financial institutions. I started learning and programming in C in 2007, and my curiosity about the inner workings of the computer led me to learn the basics of x86 assembly language. Then in 2008, I started using GNU+Linux, and I’ve been using Slackware since 2009.
Here's what I've written (so far):
