My main themes here are gardening, nature and conservation, green energy and open source software but my frustration with the way billionaires are trashing our world will inevitably feature at times.
I am Director of System Architecture at SCI Semiconductor and a Visiting Researcher at the University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory. I remain actively involved in the #CHERI project, where I led the early language / compiler strand of the research, and am the maintainer of the #CHERIoT Platform. I was on the FreeBSD Core Team for two terms, have been an LLVM developer since 2008, am the author of the GNUstep Objective-C runtime (libobjc2 and associated clang support), and am responsible for libcxxrt and the BSD-licensed device tree compiler. Opinions expressed by me are not necessarily opinions. In all probability they are random ramblings and should be ignored. Failure to ignore may result in severe boredom and / or confusion. Shake well before opening. Keep refrigerated. Warning: May contain greater than the recommended daily allowance of sarcasm.

The Last Rose of Summer is a true story about corruption in #cancer research. I discovered a cheap, plant-derived drug that could replace some much more toxic (but more lucrative) therapies. #BigPharma got involved and suppressed the research. Eventually I had to publish the story in thinly veiled fiction and survive a bunch of murder attempts. "Mary Austin" is a pseudonym, as my publisher forced me to use one. So... hi, I'm "Mary." 🤷♀️
"I just want to make the world a better (read) place" Former tech bro turned tech uncle, computer science teacher, and Education PhD. My research is about LLMs (the AI chatbots of Big Tech, really) in Higher Education. I have a sideline in audio work. Providing occasional smutty narration for @ALTAfterDark, because #AccessibilityIsHotAF What a time to be alive! (derogatory)

A steam engine cleaner and crossing keeper while my real job is IT. I also like small versions of trains, Lego, planes, cars, and whatever obsessive rabbit hole I find myself falling down this week.
