Rust 🦀 | Linux 🐧 | Python 🐍 | Embedded ⏚
I’m an engineer currently writing and shipping production Rust for an anti-ransomware company.
I drink a LOT of tea, and read a lot of Sci-fi. I used to have many many hobbies including metal working, wood working, circuit design, 3d printing, you name it, but these days my most prominent hobby is anxiety.
I’m an American *and* an anti-fascist.
My avatar is a humanoid robot with a sword sheathed behind its back.

@[email protected]“A Young Turk spared hackerdom from respectability”
I'm a hacker living in California. I take photos of arthropods, do various computer projects, and do lots of repairs on things around my house. I also like to bike and trail run :)
20+ years of open source, systems administration, software engineering, distributed systems, and infosec. You may have used software I've built -- Logstash, fpm, grok, pleaserun, xdotool.
If a user has a bad time, it’s a bug.

Kev Quirk
@[email protected]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 25 chickens, 8 goats, and more fish than I can count.
Also into watches and motorbikes — both riding and wrenching.
I also run @purecommons.
Mark Nichols
@[email protected]Aspiring cellist and mandolin player, who likes learning new programming languages (currently Rust), reading, and binging on favorite movies. Daylights as a linux/cloud system administrator for a state university.
I support the rights of every person to be who they are, without fear of repression or reprisal, without fear of their government, or society. I want everyone who is a member of the LGBTQIA+ community to have the same freedoms, privileges, respect, and agency, that I have.

@[email protected]I have a variety of interests. I mostly talk about computers (FOSS, Linux, etc) and books (Sci-fi, fantasy, weird fiction, etc). I also talk about US politics. My IRL location is typically within an hour's train ride of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
I strive to be inclusive. There is no place for hate; I will block for racism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and other bigotry. My preferred pronouns are he/him.

@[email protected]College student studying computer science. I love FOSS, baking, Beyoncé, and Oxford commas.

You can’t hate me more than I hate me.
Warning: Posts may be repeated. Because I’m old.
Self-taught web developer (PHP for life) and lover of large dogs, growing my own superhots and making hot sauces, 3D printing, crochet/knitting.
And now a sailboat. As of 2025.
Warning: Will not spoil things released within the past three months; everything else is fair game.
