he/him

You probably heard about me because I am the founder of the Twisted python networking engine open source project. But I’m also the author and maintainer of several other smaller projects, a writer and public speaker about software and the things software affects (i.e.: everything), and a productivity nerd due to my ADHD. I also post a lot about politics; I’d personally prefer to be apolitical but unfortunately the global rising tide of revanchist fascism is kind of dangerous to ignore.

I mostly get paid to talk to my friends about computers which is nice.

It seems I was radicalised by basic decency. 🤷‍♂️

Used to help run Fosstodon. These days, I just hang out here.

I work in InfoSec and live with two kids, one wife, two dogs, a blind cat, a flock of chickens, and more fish than I can count.

Also into watches and motorbikes — both riding and wrenching.
