I am but a humble code farmer. Work-wise, it's a bit dull. When I have the energy for non-work tech, it's probably in some obscure Lisp dialect, especially tinkering on/with, and occasionally contributing to, #fennel

My favorite covid-times pastime has been diving into weird/funky/experimental music from music scenes I haven't explored yet. If you recommend me an album, I'll give it a listen!

...I should probably fill this out properly at some point. I end up focusing on boring stuff when I have to write an intro like this. But hey, if you're still reading this, you made it to the end! Congrats!

If you don't wanna see my shitposts, I CW most with the "shitpost" spoiler.

Does not believe in ignoring demographics because they're "only N% of our users". Interested in #Accessibility, #SearchEngines, #Privacy, #Security (in that order).

tech-stuff: check my "uses" page: https://seirdy.one/about/uses/
Other tech interests in no particular order: linked data, the #IndieWeb, the #Gemini protocol (more into the community than the technology).

Politics: Leftist. Under-represented groups deserve disproportionately greater attention. Trans rights, abortion is healthcare, be crime do gay. Second generation Indian-American.

Neuro-atypicality: I have #anxiety and #ADHD, and deal with #OverStimulation.
