Hi everyone, I just joined silklist and Udhay asked me to post an introduction. I'm Charles Haynes, I'm an engineering manager at Google. I've known Chris Kantarjiev for, well, a few decades now. I've worked for Apple, Xerox, DEC, various startups, and now Google. I cook, I ride a motorcycle, I play poker, I like photography, I like to eat out. I've been a programmer, tech lead, director, and VP of Engineering, but mostly I like working with small groups of really smart people working on systems infrastructure and tools.
I'm currently located in San Francisco, but I'm going to Bangalore for a year on assignment starting on February 6th, and was hoping to be able to ask folks here for advice as well as participate in discussions here. Looking forward to it! -- Charles PS I've been blogging a little about my experiences so far at http://edgeplay.blogspot.com/ I'll warn you it's mostly about food so far, I'm pretty passionate about food and cooking. If you want to talk about food in San Francisco I'll be happy to contribute an opinion or two...
