Born to the Willamette valley and living there his whole life, Eric is content to spend his days pondering impossible things, gliding around on his Segway, and enjoying moments of peaceful solitude. Raised on the outskirts of suburbia, he has only recently completed his formal education with a masters in computer science, yet his life long goal of learning continues unabated.
Somedays I feel like a magician, muttering(typing) magical(syntactic) spells(code) and having amazing (crashes) things happen. Other days I feel like someone trying to write poetry in Latin and not doing very well at it
"It seems that you've been living two lives. One life, you're Eric R. Betts, Software Engineer for a company in Beaverton, OR. You have a social security number, pay your taxes, and you... bake scones for your friends and coworkers. The other life is lived in computers, where you go by the hacker alias "bettse", which kinda sounds like a girls name, and you contribute to open source. "
