@[email protected]Long time dev coder, experimenter. Enjoy disconnecting for hikes, living in the DEEP woods. Enjoy building local AI ala Ollama/StableDiff. Messin' with Linux, Python, Lora and all that open source goodness. I have a cat and like dogs.
My friends call me Bubba.
WARY of AI images and vibe coding, tho I do ALL of those. Believe AI gen Apps need a deep security audit BEFORE RELEASE, but that won’t happen.

@[email protected]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).

Zelphir Kaltstahl
@[email protected]Software developer from Germany.
Computer programming is an endless journey of learning. One never knows it all.
I am interested in computer programming concepts. Often those concepts are associated with specific programming languages or paradigms.
I like free/libre software. All things I code in my free time are free software. Usually I have many projects going on.
