About CameronBarre
I typically work with Clojure in the realm of data engineering, in addition to being a team leader.
I'm starting an economics themed project, more on that soon.
I am open to helping, and learning from, others.
Reach out for any reason and to continue discussions by putting the c back in ameron.barre.consulting@gmail.com :-)

Cult is the right word for it. I went to a meeting once, met the leader, and it was fascinating. I caught every bit of the psychological warfare in play. Shortly after, I realized …
