Is that a paid theme or did you customize it yourself? Either way retain up the nice quality composing, it is uncommon to see a great blog prefer it one today.

I think software can learn a lot from other disciplines. Look at law. Barrister-solicitor. Look at Buildings. Architect and engineer. Look at Medicine. Radiologist - Surgeon. etc Specialisation requires starting from a strong generalist foundation. Part of the problems with building software is that we dont really have a coherent idea of what the discipline actually consists of. We are still largely in craft mode. Dan.
