I'm a Solutions Engineer but what I really do is fiddle with Linux. I'm a Pākehā whose interests include craft beer, black cats, skepticism, classical guitar, mandolin, metal (particularly symphonic and NDH), sci-fi, languages, and open source (although I don't contribute nearly as much as I should :( ). There should be more hours in a day

I don't care which pronouns you use but he/him would be the typical choice

You're welcome to follow me but unless we've met I'm unlikely to follow back

I first came across Steven Novella about 25 years ago. Great to finally be able to see him talk in person at the NZ Skeptics conference in Christchurch

@kawaiicon I felt a great disturbance in the force. As if a thousand hungover nerds just remembered what time in the morning KawaiiCon starts

@nazgul@infosec.exchange @emilymbender@dair-community.social once a person i worked with reported a bug in a library to a company and they were initially 'oh yes, we'll look into this' but eventually came back with 'it's not a bug. it's a consequence of the way it was written'. i've gotten a lot of mileage from that response...
