About me

I don't do a lot of important work outside of my own hobbies, and most of my repositories are not interesting or useful in their current state.

I spend most of my time on GitHub working on cool little scripts and programs for Ubuntu.

About working with me on GitHub

I will often come to a random GitHub repository, report a bug or fix a typo (usually the latter) and then disappear somewhere else. My outside work is almost entirely non-committal (literal meaning, not as in git commits).

I am often excessively frank in my communications and appear more rude than I usually intend to.

My friends sometimes describe me as a realistic person, and I don't entirely disagree.

I have done minor outside work for a variety of notable projects, including but not limited to:

  • Canonical
  • HandBrake
  • TurboWarp
  • Ocular
  • Yacy
  • Pencil2D
  • EasyList

After learning that parts of some TurboWarp extensions were being authored by Claude, I left the project voluntarily.

Projects that I work on include:

  • MiniGuinea (an adblocker with none of the nonsense, along with a permissive MIT-style license agreement)
  • homemade_yes (the GNU yes command but slightly faster on some machines; written in ~30 lines of Rust)
  • yes_installer (a script to quickly install and manage a copy of homemade_yes)
  • Jameson (a programming language for people who liked Scratch before it started paywalling stuff)
  • https://mojavesoft.net and its mirror site https://mojavesoft.org (website for cool people)

Views on cybersecurity

If someone uses a badly-constructed lock on their house, they probably left an open window somewhere.

Don't bother with the lock. See what you can do with the window.

If you're a software developer: build it and the bad actors will come.

Torvalds

If a change results in user programs breaking, it's a bug in the kernel. We never EVER blame the user programs. How hard can this be to understand? (source)

  2. Regarding SUIT's license Regarding SUIT's license

    I regret my actions when I released and attempted to enforce the SUIT license (visible at https://github.com/PPPDUD/SUIT/commit/0b2be1e6a241238b6db9dcebb84849d0a27756cd).

    I am a different person now. I no longer support Windows or Microsoft as much as I used to, and I don't plan on pursuing people who have breached the license agreement.
