The brain and the beauty - No Fluff Just Stuff

The brain and the beauty

Posted by: Venkat Subramaniam on March 8, 2007

Yesterday in class I said, some people can create great code, but they may not be able to make their app look cool.
Some people have that esthetic sense, and can present things well, but are not good in creating code. It's hard to find
the brain and the beauty in the same head.

At the end of the class, one of the attendees walked up to me and said, "You kept moving, so it was hard to get, but here
you are," and presented the following!

A big chubbier than I really am (of course!)... good picture. I can never do that. Now, I got to find out how good she's in coding :)
