About Timm Simpkins
As a kid, I loved arcade games. When I was 7 years old, I found out that you could get this device called a computer, and you could program your own games. From that point on, I was hooked. I had to learn how to program video games. It took a few years, but finally I was able to get myself a very cheap computer. The Commodore VIC-20. I couldn't afford a tape drive, or even cartridges, but I would program terrible games in BASIC, and just never turn the computer off.
Fast forward 33 years, and believe it or not, I never became a game developer, but I have continued to love programming just as much. I've been programming professionally for over 20 years, and I have learned dozens of languages.
Programming isn't all I am though. I have a great love of learning new things. This started when I was younger than I have memory of. I used to tear apart my toys, and later everything from the toaster to the television, to find out how they worked, much to the chagrin of my mother. I read the entire set of World Book encyclopedias my family owned from cover to cover multiple times while I was a child. I spent almost every day at the library, researching everything I could. I learned about fixing hypnotism and parapsychology, and I longed to live in a haunted house. Then I learned about philosophy, and realized that hypnotism and parapsychology were most likely nonsense. I was and still am voracious about learning.
Needless to say, there aren't many things I can't do, and I try to use that knowledge to help people with everything from the exciting to mundane. If I can learn from it, I'm likely going to be interested in it.
