I’m a retired software engineer using this space to write about whatever happens to be on my mind. After a career spent writing code for other people, I enjoy having somewhere to write with no rules or deadlines.

I post a few times a week on a mix of interests. Lately, that means tracking my progress learning Spanish, logging bird sightings, practicing tai chi, and hitting the gym. You can also expect a steady stream of tech tinkering and commentary on progressive politics.

Because this is a micro.blog, you will see a blend of short, quick notes and the occasional longer essay. Thanks for reading.
