Longtime open-source user, advocate, and contributor. I’ve been working with and writing about Linux and open source since 1999. Now writing for LWN.net (@lwn). Become a subscriber here if you're not already! https://lwn.net/subscribe/

I post about Linux, free and open-source software (FOSS), music, cats, politics, writing, and anything else that comes to mind. Hates gen-AI slop.

teaches #EarthSystemScience at #McgillUniversity. Research in #geochemistry and inexpensive, accurate sensor meshes for environmental monitoring.

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.

My toots only live a month.

I make things, I fix things, and quite often break things. A Silicon Valley refugee having lived in the Pacific North West, recently returned to my home, #SantaCruz after too long away.

Three decades in the world of computers and most of it developing the Internet (largely as a Web Thing, but not really).
