Biography

I’m a software experimentalist and entrepreneur with 20 years of experience in the tech industry. I’ve held a range of positions in that time, from electronics assembler to software executive and just about everything in between.

* Spindle, Mutilate and Metaprogram: How far _can_ you push it before there be dragons?

Maybe the edge isn’t as close as we thought it was. Maybe you can do some really funky things with your language without accidentally summoning eldritch spirits. Or maybe not. The only way to find out is to try it—or, if you are of the more prudent proclivities, to watch someone else try it.
