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.

Quinn Norton
@[email protected]Writer, migrant, surprisingly nice in person. I write, these days mostly explainers. Old queer. I would rather be blocked than tone policed. It's all warnable content. More meme literate than I should be at this age. I mainly shitpost, then sometimes make you cry. ❤️

I work in InfoSec and live with two kids, one wife, two dogs, a blind cat, a flock of 25 chickens, 8 goats, and more fish than I can count.
Also into watches and motorbikes — both riding and wrenching.
I also run @purecommons.
