Rust 
| Linux 
| Python 
| Embedded ⏚
I’m an engineer currently writing and shipping production Rust for an anti-ransomware company.
I drink a LOT of tea, and read a lot of Sci-fi. I used to have many many hobbies including metal working, wood working, circuit design, 3d printing, you name it, but these days my most prominent hobby is anxiety.
I’m an American *and* an anti-fascist.
My avatar is a humanoid robot with a sword sheathed behind its back.

Maaike<p>2 friends visited yesterday. They use ChatGPT to plan vacation itineraries and such. “So convenient!”.</p><p>They asked whether I used it, and were shocked when I said no. I explained I don’t use it because it is all based on stolen data.</p><p>They looked a bit sheepish, but repeated “but it’s convenient!”.</p><p>Our longing for convenience over anything else is what’ll do us in, I’m afraid. You can remove your moral objections with these simple words! How convenient!</p>
