Alvin Toffler

The illiterate of the future are not those that cannot read or write. They are those that can not learn, unlearn, relearn.

Ira Glass: Just Keep Going


It takes a while. It's gonna take you a while. It's normal to take a while, and you just have to fight your way through that. You will be fierce. You will be a warrior.

No Pressure

We're all starting from the neighborhood of square one. At square N all of us will feel confident starting a business or publishing an app, building solutions to our own problems and solving problems for other people. Between here and there we'll face a ton of challenges, but we'll face them together.

Dev Club is a place for us to learn from one another through pair programming, sharing our little tips over cookies and coffee, short presentations, and app jams a few times a year. 

Dev Club is for inspiration and camaraderie  It's a school house, and a cheering crowd, and a place to show and tell. 

There will be no pop quiz.

Ryszard Kampuscinski


Our salvation is in striving to achieve what we know we'll never achieve.
