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.

FOSS and #DigitalAutonomy activist. Principal Software Engineer Software for Good. Engineering Lead CommitChange. Houdini Project Leader. Opinions are my own. Nonbinary. Cover photo from: https://t.co/7rVeNC

Writer, programmer, and incurable tinkerer.

Lives on a farm in a small village in the Himalayas, after a career spent working mostly on open source (especially Postgres). Struggles feebly under a growing heap of off-grid DIY and woodworking projects. Tends to photograph insects and plants more often than other things.

Atheist. Feminist. Against sexism, casteism, racism, and fascism (in any order). Trans rights are human rights.

I ❤️ FOSS and

I ❤️ 😻

I also ❤️ anime/mangas

The philosophy of my life is:

"Act only according to that maxim whereby you can, at the same time, will that it should become a universal law."

"Wo Unrecht zu Recht wird […]"

„Für den Triumph des Bösen reicht es, wenn die Guten nichts tun!“

Im Übrigen möchte ich anmerken, dass die AFD keine Alternative ist, sondern eine Schande und eine Katastrophe.
