/now
This page is inspired by Derek Sivers's post The /now page movement and the Now Movement. The purpose of this page is to share what I'm currently focussed on, and will be updated as things change.
This is both for longer-lived interests and shorter-lived "what I'm currently doing".
What am I up to right now?
- Living with my partner Anna Dodson and our beautiful terror of a cat Morph and our dog Cookie
- I'm currently at Elastic as a Senior Software Engineer, working in the Platform Engineering Productivity organisation, on the DevFlow ("everything left of merge to main") team
- I'm actively blogging about technical and personal things
- I'm stepping into the IndieWeb movement, one #IndieWeb post at a time
- I'm largely focussing on my Open Source projects dependency-management-data and oapi-codegen, but also a number of others I maintain
What are my interests?
- Blogging
- Decentralisation
- GNU/Linux
