Sviluppo software per lavoro e per passione.
Sono attivo nel mondo dell' #opensource, contribuisco a progetti pubblici e ne creo anche di miei, disponibili per tutti.
Sono inoltre impegnato nello studio dell’#ai e di tools basati su essa, su come possono impattare sul mio lavoro quotidiano e sullo sviluppo software in generale.
Scrivo articoli e faccio video dove parlo di sviluppo software, open source, tools, ecc.

@[email protected]Dear Mastodon Users,
Promoting my Single-File Vanilla Project called HDUB Pixel Art Edition. It's an 'everyman' HTML Hobby WYSIWYG and I have it built out as a proof-of-concept. FOSS
There is no corporate angle. If you like the project idea, just take it, use it, extend it, change it...
The majority of my comments are idiotic. Sometimes it's what struck me as odd/obvious at that exact moment. I guess I have no filter? I apologize in advance...

In other words: I do maps on websites, maintaining the Leaflet JS library when I can, but working on Gleo (my own JS+WebGL library) otherwise.

I love working with authors from other Open Source DNS Software and with DNS Operators on Open Standards to align ideas and to achieve interoperability.
