I'm a software engineer at Tyba, open-source maintainer, amateur musician, recovering entrepreneur, and father of two. In my copious free time I work on Biff (Clojure web framework) and Yakread (reading app). I play SWU.
You may know me from some of my greatest hits, including:
- Why to not be a startup founder
- Impressions on Sudbury Schooling
- You can help unbundle social media
- Leaving Mormonism
- How to rebuild social media on top of RSS
I've also done a few podcast interviews/presentations:
- Imperfect Creatives podcast: invention as a career path
- London Clojurians: the design of Biff
- The REPL: Biff
- Defn Podcast: Biff
Got something to chat about? Send me an email. Now, dammit.
