Darrell Ulm: Computer Science and Software Development

I am Darrell Ulm , a software developer,  with broad interests across computer science and modern software engineering. My work spans algorithms, parallel and data-parallel computing, Apache Spark, signal processing, graphics, and open source software. I have developed in many languages and environments, including Assembly, C/C++, C#, PHP, MySQL, Unity3D, and enterprise content management systems.

Drupal stands out to me as one of the most powerful and interesting CMS platforms I have worked with, while WordPress continues to impress with its rapid evolution, flexibility, and massive plugin ecosystem. GitHub has long been my main hub for open source work, though I have been increasingly interested in GitLab. I have also explored older platforms like SourceForge and profile aggregators such as OpenHub.

I stay active in developer and knowledge sharing communities such as StackExchange, CodeProject, Codecademy, TopCoder, and Quora, and I use SlideShare to bookmark useful technical presentations. My research interests are reflected in profiles on ResearchGate, DBLP, and Microsoft Academic. 

One project I am particularly proud of is a Drupal Google Books module built using the Google Books API, which highlights my interest in practical API integration and open source contribution.

Threads.com Darrell R Ulm Profile Page

Below is a quick review and overview of development and major site profiles evaluated, more details in the blog posts:

• Possibly the most complex content management system (CMS): Drupal, although Joomla is up there.
• Git code repository with the best front end, Ruby implementation: GitHub. GitHub is great for so many reasons, although really starting to get into GitLab!
• Excellent Apache Spark in the cloud with an Amazing notebook style front end: Databricks
• Hadoop and more Hadoop, Hortonworks, which I've looked at but have been learning more about Apache Spark. 
• Darrell Ulm Tumblr site
• Wordpress is great and has been putting in all types of cool enhancements in the past years, and is really widespread: Darrell Ulm Wordpress profile
• Find answers, ask question about tech and about many useful things, in this case for Drupal: StackExchange Drupal, Darrell Ulm Profile
• An older site for open source code, have some small code exercises here, SourceForge, just because SourceForge is there. 
• Evaluating Weebly just to be complete, made a quick Weebly Site Profile for myself to see how it worked. Surprisingly for a quick small web site, it is fine.
• The OpenHub profile, is an interesting site which pulls in open source code by user and presents a listing. Not sure how much it is used these days, but it reminds one of GitHub in the early days.
• I had to try out how Ted Profiles, pretty clean and the idea is mainly to like or keep track of Ted Talks a user is interested.
• Along the same lines created a more useful Darrell Ulm GoodReads list for books read, books interested in reading or rating. Software is pretty good with a few interface issues.
• There are many good presentations at SlideShare, and I had to make an account. Some of the profile linkage does not work, and wondering if updates are not happening on the software. Even so, SlideShare is a useful tool to bookmark slide presentations for researching a topic.
• The Quora site is an interesting place to have a Profile, and I made one for Darrell Ulm, to learn and answer questions about technologies, software development, computer science and math.
• So I was ready when needing to work with Wordpress, have an account for Darrell Ulm on Wordpress.org for support , and again Wordpress is impressive these days, usful for more enterprise custom sites than ever before with an active plug-in and theme development community.
• There are two profile for Wordpress, so have one for my Darrell Ulm profiles, this one different, from the support profile and is for rating modules and similar functions.
• Have to have a Google+ for Darrell Ulm profile page because, it's Google. Seems like people are using it and it could be a useful tool.
• I designed and developer the Google Books Drupal Module, which is here on Github which uses the Google Books API for a search term or ISBN and returns data to use in a Drupal Text Filter.
• The CodeProject Profile again is a good site for finding coding standards and tricks and tips on writing software in many languages.
• This is an outdated link for Kent State University, research papers as well as others. This link is still a decent compilation of the pdf files up to a certain date for associative computing (data-parallel computing).
• At this site is a listing for Publications on Research Gate, a site with possibly the best interface for an online academic publication profile. 
• Made an Etsy Profile for Darrell Ulm, as there are some interesting tech or nerd related gadgetry available on Etsy. 
• Another profile: Instagram Profile for Darrell R Ulm, and someday I could post something. Apparently that is still OK.
• A genuinely excellent site codecademy, and I've got a Profile for Darrell Ulm here also, has great tutorials for several popular computer languages, and it is worth checking out.
• A new page popped up called Libraries.IO Github, and it appears to be an automated overview of Github users and a short list of code contributed.
• The http://dblp.uni-trier.de site has a nice Computer Science Bibliography which has been around for some time and is pretty accurate as far as the data goes.
• The Mozilla project has a profile for plug-in developers here , it's honed down to a simple setup and this is where you can post developer Firefox plug-ins.
• As for a gamified  developer profile, Microsoft has one, i.e. Microsoft MSDN, and it has some gamified elements that other developer profiles are starting to show. The whole idea of goal setting for development is interesting.
• Microsoft Academic is looking better.
• As most of these profiles, looking at evaluating my TopCoder Profile, and this one is pretty great. When things are not as intense with projects, need to try out a couple of contests.
• And a Pinterest profile mostly with ceramic handmade tiles.
