I'm one of the elected moderators on Unix & Linux.

I currently work as a software developer, supporting bioinformatics and biomedical research. I've been using various Unix systems since around 1992. I use a mix of OpenBSD and macOS privately, but my workplace mainly uses Debian and Alpine Linux.

Two beautiful things in Unix:

1. Pipelines, and
2. The pattern-action mechanism of awk.

I want to write an ed(1) clone, but I never seem to get the time. I'm doing my best to learn Esperanto.

I'm a Dvorak keyboard user, but I'm generally a nice guy, really.

"Nothing new will be said here, nor have I any skill in composition. Therefore I do not imagine that I can benefit others. I have done this to perfume my own mind." -- Śāntideva, Bodhicaryāvatāra

Credits for the excellent Lego profile image go to one of my colleagues and her kids! The likeness is uncanny.
