My #introduction after 3 years on this instance! I am Shamil. I prefer he/him pronouns, but anything works! You may have seen me around the internet as noteness. I used to be an IRC warrior, and interested in all federated systems. Naturally I ended up on Mastodon also! I am an aspiring PL/Systems researcher at IIIT Hyderabad, and I love tinkering with cyber systems. Compared to the rest of the people here, I would say I am kind of an amateur sysadmin. I have worked on IIIT Hyderabad infrastructure as a sysadmin for about 3 years now. I am from #Kerala, a proud member of @ntns @ IIIT Hyderabad, and a commie! o/
