I'm a retired (because of a job injury) firefighter and now work as a police/fire dispatcher. I consider myself a serious hobby photographer. I shoot mostly fire department emergency scenes.

Programming is my only way to support my GAS which unfortunately is not limited to photography, also time is limited as everyone in the IT business need their projects done fast which only means 12+ hours of work.
I always wondered which was the first cat image ;DDon Haines said:Communications research....
First major project that I worked on was Telidon. http://www.friendsofcrc.ca/Projects/Telidon/Telidon.html
The project predated the internet and influenced many aspects of it's design, including the concepts of HTML and the idea that you could connect from anywhere. In 1986, when the internet was officially created, we were part of it.... and here is a picture from 1986.... the first cat picture posted on the internet!

I spent quite a bit of time in Silicon Valley in the mid to late eighties (I was an ASIC designer in those days) and remember this era well. Very exiting times.
I was working for a Norwegian company called Elektrisk Bureau, which a bit later was split and taken over by Ericsson and ABB. In Silicon Valley I primarily worked with ZyMOS and LSI Logic, but we also made some analogue circuits with Hughes in Los Angeles.wsmith96 said:Eldar said:I always wondered which was the first cat image ;D

Who were you designing ASICs for?
