fear of code

About

I have been writing server software for about twelve years, the last six of them mostly in Go. Before that it was PHP, which I am not embarrassed about: it taught me more about operating other people's code than any language since.

This site is deliberately plain. It is static files on a small virtual machine, served by nginx, with no build pipeline worth the name — a Makefile that runs tar. That is partly taste and partly that every piece of infrastructure I add is a piece I have to understand again in two years.

Elsewhere

I do not keep social accounts worth linking. If something here is wrong, I would genuinely like to know, and the contact address is my first name at this domain.
