Terminally online, mostly harmless.

I like old computers, retro games and combining the two with some vintage game dev.

My day job involves building web based things with PHP.

independent cinema, techno, jazz, algorave, mechanical keyboards, boardgames, indie games, generative art, biking, feminism, education, functional programming, tools for thought, HCI, it security, privacy, ethics, ...

Open-source enthusiast and student. I have interests in nature, science, gaming and that shiny button over there.

Currently studying computer science, business and biology, but spending most of my time tinkering with open-source.

I am searchable

I make games, software, companies, and communities. Fight negativity with passion and compassion. @patrickmcurry here and elsewhere.

Retired chemical engineer. Currently feeding my intellect with mammalian #biology and #microbiology, the network and complex system aspects of biology, and the brain/body mechanisms via the vagus nerve.

Recent-ish love of "The Hidden Half of Nature: The Microbial Roots of Life and Health" and "I Contain Multitudes".

Favorite papers as of May 2023 (so far): "The Danaid Theory of Aging", "Systems Biology of Phenotypic Robustness and Plasticity"

Activities: #weightlifting and #hiking

Eyes on how biological systems (immune system / hormonal comms) can influence the next generation of large-scale computer systems design and ops. Biomimetics in the technology systems sphere.

Mostly a programmer.

Implementing #ActivityPub in the #Go programming language.

Current projects:

* #GoActivityPub - a library to use ActivityPub in Go.

* #FedBOX - a generic ActivityPub service supporting the client to server API.

* #brutalinks - a link aggregator inspired by (old) reddit, hacker news and lobste.rs built on top of FedBOX.

* #oni - a single user ActivityPub server with minimal fuss.

My posts are mostly related to ActivityPub and web development.
