## What Jamie wrote

I like how reading this you can hear how clearly Bray loves the act of coding. 

> Old-school it may be, but I’m learning cool new Java things like postmodern switch because IntelliJ keeps sneering at my Java 8 idioms and suggesting the new shiny. And I’d forgotten, really, how nice carving executable abstractions into shape feels. Also parsers are particularly fun.

Keep that connection to the passion that you have as a technologist!
