Perfil principal meu al Fedivers. Últimament molt col·lapsista: penso que s'ha acabat el petroli fàcil i barat i no ens hem preparat per substituir-lo. Alhora, hem desfermat un caos de bucles de ralimentació climàtics que ens portaran més enllà dels +2ºC. Estem, doncs, al mig d'una "reducció de la complexitat social", i no pas bonica ni ordenada. Tot i així, miro de trobar una sortida cooperativa d'aquest pou on ens hem ficat.

També parlo de programari lliure, serveis lliures i Fedivers.

My main profile un the Fediverse. I'm very "collapsist" lately: we're already past the peak cheap oil and we haven't done anything to substitute it. At the same time we've unleashed a chaotic bunch of climate feedback loops that will bring us beyond +2ºC. So we're in the middle of a "social complexity reduction", and it looks like a disordered one. Still, I work day to day for a cooperative exit to this hole we've dug ourselves in.
I also talk about FLOSSS (that is, software and services) and the Fediverse.

Born in the United States, I am a professional software engineer, and have been since 2008. I do full-stack app development, mostly in Python and JavaScript, and also work on embedded computers, mostly programmed in C/C++. I am passionate about functional programming languages, especially Haskell, Scheme, and Emacs, so this is mostly what my posts are about.

I care deeply about human rights and justice for the poor, persecuted, and underprivileged people.

**Warning:** I will occasionally re-share posts containing images of the victims of the Gaza holocaust **which do not have content warnings.** I do this because I feel we should not look away from the horrors of genocide, we have collectively forfeit our right to not see the shock and horror of these images.

I am strongly opposed to war, fascism, and any ideology driven by hatred. I reject all forms of violence except self defense (war and terrorism are never self defense). Climate change is an issue of human rights because it will cause the most harm to the poor and underprivileged. I am especially concerned about large corporations and nation-states using AI as a means of controlling people through targeted advertising, mass surveillance, and "pre-crime" policing. Most of the political posts that I boost are about climate change, and the abuse of AI technology.

Since late 2023, I have been especially horrified by the genocide being committed by the United States and Israel against the people of Palestine, although I now understand that these crimes against humanity have been ongoing almost continuously since 1948. **A large number** of the posts I boost are about the ongoing genocide against the people of Palestine, as well as all the other innumerable crimes against humanity committed by the states of the US and Israel throughout the Middle East and elsewhere. Usually I am careful to only boost posts that respect content warning rules.

I also love retro-computing, especially computers from the late 70s to early 90s, in particular old Apple computers, but I love all old computers from that era. I will often boost post on these topics.

I am also passionate about free/libre software, especially Linux. Most of my posts are about functional programming languages, retro-computing, and Linux. I will occasionally author and boost posts about this.

I also enjoy procedurally generated art (which do not use LLMs), what you might call "algorithmic art," and photography, and will probably boost posts sharing artwork like this fairly often as well.
