Regarding me

1. You can contact me at ryan@ryanmccuaig.net.

2. I am usually known as rgm at miscellaneous places like Twitter, Github or IRC.

3. I work at Acton Ostry Architects in Vancouver, where I architect various things. Whatever the hell that means.

4. I write code for Vectorworks, iOS and Mac OS X, using my BSc (CompSci) powers.

5. I’m a member of the Architectural Institute of BC, a shiny Certified Professional as pertains to the BC Building Code and Vancouver Building Bylaw, and a LEED Accredited Professional. (Also whatever the hell that means). In general, I seem to be pro-credential. At least the ones people are willing to give me.

6. All of the above is available as a handy vcard.

Regarding this site

Alan Kay: People who are really serious about software should make their own hardware.

Substitute “Architects” for “People,” “buildings” for “software,” and “computer tools” for “hardware,” and it remains true. Program or be programmed.

I figured the easiest way to find good sites about the intersection of architecture and software was to start this one, and wait for irritated people to point out the better ones.
