You probably heard about me because I am the founder of the Twisted python networking engine open source project. But I’m also the author and maintainer of several other smaller projects, a writer and public speaker about software and the things software affects (i.e.: everything), and a productivity nerd due to my ADHD. I also post a lot about politics; I’d personally prefer to be apolitical but unfortunately the global rising tide of revanchist fascism is kind of dangerous to ignore.

Generic PNW dev.

Hi, I’m Nik. 👋 I live in Los Angeles, California ☀️ with my wife ❤️ and our cats and dogs 🐾.

I’m a software engineer working primarily with Python 🐍, and am the @pybeach founder 🏛️ and a @socalpython organizer 🎤.

I do indoor rowing 🚣‍♂️, ride bicycles 🚴‍♂️, pretend to read 📖, pretend to write 🖋️, listen to too many podcasts 🎙️, and still wear a mask 😷 because COVID isn’t over 🦠.

I often put bonus content in media alt text 🖼️.

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. Ich hätte gern, wenn du mein schlecht Deutsch korrigierst, ob du das willst.

70% coffee by volume. I’m really into electronics, 3D printing, and sewing right now, and trying very hard to learn German. 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.

Hi, come in, do you want a cup of coffee?, yes, good!. SysAdmin, Devops and open source are my superpowers.

I'm an Australian ruby developer who loves to make games which is why I'm building Taylor!

Taylor is a small, free, and open source game engine designed to be easy to use, cross platform, and to boost developer happiness

Does not want to talk about "AI", LLMs, cryptoscams.

My opinions are always my own. Like my shitposts.
