1 <h1>about me</h1> 2 <h2>things i like</h2> 3 <ul> 4 <li>I like computers. They enable wonderful new ways of expression and open 5 access to incredible amounts of knowledge. But I also dislike computers 6 for being drivers of social isolation and the decline of 7 democracy.</li> 8 <li>I like simplicity. There are rational justifications for this but I 9 like it because it gives me a sense of comfort and beauty.</li> 10 <li>I like programming. Besides being an extremely convenient skill it 11 enables you to "create the world" as Linus Torvalds put it 12 aptly.</li> 13 <li>I like open-source. It captures all of the good things about 14 computers.</li> 15 <li>I like Unix. I think I would prefer a microkernel OS (based on 16 <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L4_microkernel_family">L4</a> 17 for example) but I have not used such an OS yet.</li> 18 <li>I like JS/HTML. It's the most accessible and the most portable 19 programming environment available today. I dislike npm and the attached 20 ecosystem (no accessibility, no portability, no simplicity). 21 <a href="https://css-tricks.com/centering-css-complete-guide/">I dislike CSS.</a> 22 </li> 23 <li>I like C. C feels like the original way things are supposed to be. 24 Learning C makes you understand computers.</li> 25 <li>I like Lisp (Scheme). I have never used it though.</li> 26 </ul> 27 28 <h2>contact</h2> 29 <p>All of my social media identities can be found on 30 <a href="https://keyoxide.org/2A1E4A37EC5776CD1104AFB0BB7591245A64B2FC">keyoxide</a>. 31 You can just write me an email to the address listed there/the 32 address of my GPG key.
