I'm a programmer in Truckee, CA, USA. My current dayjob revolves around Ruby (and Rails in particular), but I'm also proficient with Perl and Julia, and know at least the basics of Java, C, and Ada (among many, many others).

I'm a local Unix guru, with more than half a decade of non-stop experience with and use of various Unixen and Unix-like operating systems (including GNU/Linux, OpenBSD, illumos - particularly SmartOS - and OS X). I also know my way around Windows from 3.1 to present (though I've generally avoided Windows since stumbling upon and learning Unix), and have a couple machines at home running other oddballs like FreeDOS and Haiku.

My favorite editors are Geany, nano, and Emacs (in that order).
