I write software programs for 
living, some of them are 
open source. I try to better understand the world around me primarily via 
reading fiction, non-fiction, and technical books. I spend my free time on acquiring knowledge about things that interest me, which currently happens to be data 
visualizations and distributed systems. Occasionally, I write blog posts when I have something to say or ramble something out of sheer boredom, the list can be found below.
