More recently, he's started developing in Python (well, Jython, but close enough) and is unsure if it's flaws outweigh its advantages of having a more sugary syntax. He is currently working at a small South Melbourne based company which specialises in sales incentive management / reporting software, and is being schooled in the finer points of small company operations.
