I may talk your ear off if I know you, or something about the matter. While I do I work on it, don't say I didn't warn you!

Posts may be in English or sometimes German.

Rust 🦀 | Linux 🐧 | Python 🐍 | Embedded ⏚

I’m an engineer currently writing and shipping production Rust for an anti-ransomware company.

I drink a LOT of tea, and read a lot of Sci-fi. I used to have many many hobbies including metal working, wood working, circuit design, 3d printing, you name it, but these days my most prominent hobby is anxiety.

I’m an American *and* an anti-fascist.

“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.
