Tyranny and poverty are everywhere a mainstream economics phenomenon.

I am a liberal computer geek, hockey nut (and goalie), web 2.0 fanatic, dad of two, and husband of one. I am also a veteran (i.e., old) software developer and computer hacker.

Ich bin in Philadelphia geboren und in USA aufgewachsen. Später arbeitete ich beim Bosch in Hildesheim und XSe in VIllingen-Schweningen. Von Februar 2026, beginne ich ein neues Leben in Berlin.

Ich arbeite seit langem mit C++/C und Linux Betriebssystemprogrammierung. Außer Technik und Deutsch Studium sind Radfahren und Musik meine Leidenschaften.

Composer and audio programmer in Rochester, NY | Lecturer in music tech and film/game scoring at SUNY Geneseo

For music, I use Max/MSP and Tidal Cycles/SuperCollider, as well as writing for acoustic instruments, and I like to mix glitchy, noisy, microtonal sounds with “cheesy” retro synths

For audio programming, I use Rust, C++/JUCE, and C, and I made my IndieWeb-style website with 11ty

I also like fountain pens, analog photography, and I'm getting into TTRPGs

Joined mastodonapp.uk back in Nov 2022. I have a 'backup' a/c on mendeddrum.org.

Oldish bloke, got to retirement age in 2024. Now retired, due to the old line about "when it stops being fun, stop doing it". O

Anyway, old-school coder, now retired from work. I've worked with everything from punch-cards to Perl, via machine language and microcode, C, C++, SQL, etc, etc. Now a happy Linux user on Garuda.

Getting more radically 'left' as I get older. I despise all racists, homophobes, Nazis, etc.

Bored CRUD web developer by day, enthusiast C/C++ developer by night.

I love playing video games. So much so, that I even make them in C++ using raylib! I love 80s Rock and Metal, and hate Nazis.

Former SysAdmin, Qt C++ dev, python automation tinkerer. Motorcycle rider. Trainee bus driver.

Indie Developer making things in C++ and Swift.

Mp3tag for macOS (@mp3tag) and Windows (@mp3tag).
@habitboard for iOS, iPadOS, and watchOS.

23 years teaching games programming (maths, AI, gfx, tools, networking).
Languages: primarily C++, a lot of C#, Lua and some Ruby. But used MANY over the last 40 years.

I'm working on DL tech helping companies provide better recommendation services leveraging their image databases.

I often code in Ruby (less often in Python and when the need arises a bit of C/C++) and spend quite some time reading deep-learning related papers and experimenting mixing some ideas from them with my own.

I love hiking, cooking, discovering some new tech to play with and relaxing or playing with cats. I love it even more when it’s done with friends.

N.B. very much still a work in progress <insert web 1.0 work in progress animated gif>
