Former corporate guy.
I enjoy gaming, writing, and making things. Bio sections are very difficult to fill out.

LLMs are a scourge on society.

Professional game developer (programmer), I also work on Engineer, a #FreeSoftware #game using #Godot. Which means sometimes I also make "art" (as in "programmer art" 🙃)

I like to make stuff, both hardware and virtual.

Interested in #GameDev, #OpenHardware, #LowTech, and curious to discover more.

I live in #France. Please bear with my occasional weird formulations, I'm not a native English speaker.

Leonés en el exilio. Leones sin autonomia #lexit. Me gusta Linux, la sci-fi, la musica y a veces hablo de politica.
La virtud es el medio entre dos polos opuestos.

I like ciphers and dislike AI. I love Formula 1 and dislike broccoli. I know exactly one card trick.
Amateur Python coder, enthusiast of FOSS, self-hosting, crypto...graphy, smallweb, alternative protocols, lowtech.
Maybe a musician. Sometimes a neo-luddite.
I like annoying jokes and I'm sorry in advance.

PhD in electrical engineering (control theory); interested in preventing "systems" from "blowing up".

Also, I sometimes feel a vocation to point out oversimplified pseudo-truths, preferably in my own bubble.

Posting mostly in German, but I try to set the appropriate language attribute for each toot.

I program #SpringBoot web services and have now managed to avoid managing people. I used to program dev tools & before that, program mobile phones.

Once ran the same early Windows 8 build instance on both a hypervisor and native boot.

Old enough to remember #Symbian #C++.

I really like painting miniature figures like those produced for #warhammer, but am not so keen on #GamesWorkshop.

#OnePageRules is my current #TableTop #Wargaming jam.

Involved in some kind of computer bullshit.

Front-End Developer.

I have decided to change my profession again. After more than a decade, I’m back to HTML, CSS & JS now with React and Next.js to spice things up.

Natively, I dream in Bosnian. The dispute about the existence of such a language is available somewhere, but not here.

War refugee, illegal immigrant, and petty outlaw at the century’s dusk.

Software Engineer. Professor. Researcher.

Building things quietly and talking about music for hours. Probably overthinking both
