Time for a new

I am ostensibly human and can prove it cryptographically.

I like Art, all art, and most technologies. I hack mostly Perl, Bash, and Python but have spent the most of my time building websites with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (ever since Flash/ActionScript died). I've been working with AI since long before LLMs were a thing, mostly for creative endeavors. I survived the flame wars and will no longer tolerate that kind of behavior. I am not a "Real Programmer" and neither is anyone else.

I play guitar, mandolin, some piano & drums, and I'm picking up ukulele a little. I crochet manageably and knit poorly. I can still do a fair number of my old magic tricks, but nobody really wants to see that kinda stuff anymore. I occasionally draw, collage, and paint as well as repair most household objects.

I have art and writing on my website(s), and if you can find them all hopefully you enjoy some of it, because I am not a "Content Creator" and I'm not interested in becoming an "Influencer," I just want to make stuff and experience life and share it with the world at my discretion.

I'm married with 2 kids, but usually I keep them out of my online interactions for their privacy.

Here's some hashtags I follow:
