I drink Philz.

I do a (non-monetized) video or so a week on yt.

Tyranny and poverty are everywhere a mainstream economics phenomenon.

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.

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

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.

A programmer from Aotearoa (otherwise known as New Zealand). I have also lived in China but I'm back now.

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.

I've been a Mastodonian since Sept 2017, originally as @jdarnold @ sdf.org

Programmer | Physicist | C++ | Python | Linux | he/him

Structural biology (XFEL crystallography, cryoEM, microED) 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.

70% coffee by volume. I’m really into electronics and 3d printing right now. 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've seen things you people wouldn't believe... PC Revolutions, C compilers clacking huge Floppy Disks , Lisp Machine Nirvana, Unix Wars, building an early ISP, Metro Wireless, #Startups that went down, Hardware Image Processing, Objective C training from Brad Cox, first C++ Conference, unreadable Perl, lots of Python, Ruby, #Clojure and now back to #Python, #DevOps, #AWSCommunityBuilder, #Serverless, #Sourdough Software System and Cloud Architectures. Not time to die!
