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.

At home I run linux (#bluefin, #bazzite) and #kubernetes on too many devices, love reading and decompress with my kids/spouse and a large #steam library. I love movement culture (perth parkour, cirquest) also but struggle to train regularly.

At work I lead the infrastructure operations for WA DGov - DTT

I want to write a better world.

I am interested in two things:

1. How the world works
2. How we can make it better

My mission is to develop a deep understanding of how our world works — economically, politically, historically — and write to make it common knowledge.

I write wanting to address the problems in the world that keep us trapped in cycles of suffering.
