Downpour

fig. 1. Downpour.
I am currently a software engineer at Google, where as a member of the Android platform team I build frameworks and user interfaces.
The blog here at dsandler.org is mostly historical; you can find more recent posts on Google+.
Sudden downpour. There’s no way to capture in pictures the way that the
rain slides down the driveways and front yards in this neighborhood.
It swirls in the cul-de-sac like Kharybdis; it tumbles down the wide
street like a waterfall knocked off its cliff.
