“A Young Turk spared hackerdom from respectability”

I'm a hacker living in California. I take photos of arthropods, do various computer projects, and do lots of repairs on things around my house. I also like to bike and trail run :)

20+ years of open source, systems administration, software engineering, distributed systems, and infosec. You may have used software I've built -- Logstash, fpm, grok, pleaserun, xdotool.

If a user has a bad time, it’s a bug.

I'm a software engineer by trade, an electronics hobbyist and amateur guitarist by night, and a house-rabbit enthusiast and ambassador all the time.

I live in the windswept prairies of Canada.

A series of edge cases packed into a vaguely human shape, my skill set can be best described as ”Oops! All Hardware”

I started the ThunderScope project, which you can now find on Crowd Supply! It's designed to be the best PC connected scope out there *and* it's open source.

My goal is to make open source the default choice for test equipment, like RepRap did for 3D Printing.

I may not have an OSHW tattoo, but at least I'm not a hypocrite.

"Big Blue Gnu" is my pseudonym. In real life, I am a student majoring in software engineering and minoring in art, as well as a pianist who has taken up music theory. Outside of that, I am a free software advocate who contributes edits to Wikipedia and items to the Internet Archive, preserves web pages and files, and occasionally posts reviews on IMDb. This is the place where I regularly blog about my activities, as well as whatever concerns me.

Multi-decade open source project contributor, manager, and leader. Manager of Developer Experience Engineers at Fastly. Previously Principal Program Manager at Red Hat helping to deliver RHEL. Previously Head of Open Source Programs at Bloomberg

I write code, and publish code, and break code, and spend far too much time with Ansible and highly-overengineered home networking, and DNS, and GPS, and... it never ends.

Co-human to three cats along with my significant other.

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. On the spectrum (hard X-ray, ~12 keV).

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.
