Yeah there's a whole bunch of them, they're different posts. I guess a couple of the Safari team dudes have started blogging recently...

Interesting. 2003 - Safari launches. 2013 - a salvo of blogs is fired.

I'm thinking either an NDA just expired or a lot of folks are feeling nostalgic about the 10 year anniversary.

Neither, really. It's mostly because I retired.

So I'm curious. As a young programmer with 1.5 years before entering the workforce I have to wonder what you plan to do. From my super young and inexperienced perspective retirement will just mean having more control over my programming. Is programming still super fun and adicting?

So; what do you plan to do? A relaxed retirement? Occasional contracting? A startup? Open source? Quiting programming forever and travelling? Something a lot more reasonable than this false dichotomy?

I believe he is attempting to be a writer.

From his website: "Hello, I'm Don Melton, probably best known as the guy who started the Safari and WebKit projects at Apple. These days I'm just an aspiring writer and a recovering programmer."
