Just an old geek. Learned about computers on a CARDIAC (CARDboard Illustrative Aid to Computation). Then the math teacher at HS got an old Navy surplus computer with drum memory. It had a high speed optical paper tape reader. From there it was BASIC, Cobol, FORTRAN, CMS-2Y, Jovial, Ada. Did some Java and C but never got that good. In retirement learning Rust.

I do not post much myself but will boost interesting and insightful posts from as diverse a range of others as I can manage.

Structural biology (XFEL crystallography, cryoEM, electron crystallography) data processing methods developer. I use my degree in chemistry to write software to use physics to understand biology. As of 2024, based in Hamburg. Ich hätte gern, wenn du mein schlecht Deutsch korrigierst, ob du das willst.

70% coffee by volume. I’m really into electronics, 3D printing, and sewing right now, and trying very hard to learn German. I have a very fluffy and affectionate cat. Big fan of bicycles and trains, better public infrastructure generally, and investment in collective wellbeing generally. Food motivated; very easily bribed with coffee and pastries. Always learning.

I'd rather you get a sense of my values from checking my feed, but in very-very-brief, fascism is bad, open source and open science are necessary but not sufficient, and the right to repair includes yourself.

Nerd for clean air, computers, community health. 
Bookish & crafty, known to make things.

Currently learning #rust, #linux, #knitting.

Slightly toasted and lightly fried hacker interested in security, privacy and decentralization topics in computing. Goblin whistlesmith. International nuclear inspector. Curious by nature.

Boost like a neuron in a hive mind. Fav like nobody's watching.

Building #stigmerge https://github.com/cmars/stigmerge as a side project with #veilid in #rust.

I'm here for the kitties, flowers, shitposts and stigmergy. Sometimes I wish I could pet a bee.
