Programming by Will
My day job is as a database applications programmer, maintaining some database-driven software and evolving it with new features, updated functionality, and [of course] bug fixing.
My language of choice is Delphi/Pascal (with a little HTML/CSS/JS) which has a long history and has grown from once being considered a dying language into a very powerful language with many variations developed to meet certain needs. The "big ticket" IDE is Delphi by Embarcadero.
Other Pascal incarnations also exist:
I'm sure there are others, however my focus is on the above four variations. What you'll find here are my programmer ramblings along with any source code I care to share.

Other Pascal incarnations also exist:
- Lazarus/FreePascal - Delphi's free cousin. This IDE is developed using open source FreePascal as its compiler and was developed from the ground up to be cross-platform.
- Ultibo.org - a Lazarus/FreePascal variant made for development using the Raspberry Pi hardware platform, creating efficient applications without Linux.
- PascalScript - a Pascal-driven engine for running Pascal-based scripts at runtime
