I've been aware of NTEN for many years, as I began nonprofit work here in Portland back in 2006. For developers, the fun is in the code, not necessarily in the planning. She bought us first class tickets, sat next to me, held my hand, and made fun of me just enough to ease my fear a bit. How did you get into programming?
