Automotive programmer. Through hardship to the stars

Introduction



The photo was taken by me while visiting the BMW showroom in Munich.



A small article about how life is and what it breathes in the big and clumsy Automotive world. In the world of software development, what technologies are used, what tasks have to be solved, everything is entirely based on personal experience. Yes, here I will not reveal the truth, automotive software usually uses outdated technologies and rather long development cycles, although of course there are exceptions - Tesla, for example. Although these are just my assumptions from what I can read about this company on the Internet. The text contains small inserts of the author's biography.



And right away a digression: initially I wrote this article entirely in Russian, but then I decided to replace some of the terms and abbreviations in English, as they are more often found and mentioned on the Internet. In the end it turned out what happened.
