opinionated lurker of the intarwebs.

Used to write code, still do. c/c++, java, php, js, c#, gdscript, gnawed on sql, sparql, unix/windows etc etc billions of years ago.

tech, graphics, anything STEM
anything anthropology, history, linguistics
anything blender, gimp (although i scream using it), audacity
prefers not to be run over by cars

I drink Philz.

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

Tyranny and poverty are everywhere a mainstream economics phenomenon.

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".

Anyway, old-school coder. 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.

Teaching programming (fundamentals, data structures and algorithms, GUI programming) in university. Formerly did also training for companies as a freelancer. Programming for myself and fun. C/C++, Java, Swift and SwiftUI. Drawing and painting, running and cycling. Father & grandfather.

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.

Wandervogel aus Viersen. Natur, Schmetterlinge, C++ und so.

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.

70% coffee by volume. I’m really into electronics, 3D printing, and sewing 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'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.

Security researcher by day, weird deer lady by night. Big fan of usenet and smolnet and prone to talking in equal measure about Linux and stuffed animals.

humanities guy who loves STEM, can't do maths. everything is political. dipping my toes into vegetarianism.

#jiraidon adoptee
#leonart - my art tag

I trust code more than politics.

Always busy with computer, tech stuff and mostly #linux #arch #nixos and #python #freebsd
Interested in energy reduction, measurement. A little politics but mostly fun and itchy remarks which trigger thinking. So read and keep smiling 🙂

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!

Posts are in English and German. Puns are intended 🙃

I'm the Grumpy Old Ape, father of many, ex of two, long-time user of C++, writing 24/7 software that keeps people's lights on. Expect political, social, environmental, and programming-related posts. And maybe some about cooking, gardening, raising kids, or even k-drama. (As if any of those were not political…)

Most of this will be in English, but you might have to gloss over the occasional German post.

"I'm not intentionally leftist; I'm just trying to behave like a decent human being."

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
