Abuse of Colophon
Life isn't complete without some personal opinions and controversy: My favorite languages are (in no particular order) C, Shell, and Scheme. I use both Vim and Emacs, aggressively. My favorite operating system is GNU. I like proofs, and so I'm not terribly fond of dynamic typing, but I do like type inference. Algebraic datatypes are superior to non-, but I cannot escape my love of low-level programming and the datatypes inherent with that. No, higher-level abstractions such as those devised by Curry, Church, and Turing are not substitutes to low-level design, so don't try to sneak that into my deviance from algebraic types just now; I love them from a different perspective. Paper is a hacker's best friend, and can help to tame the burden of mind. Do unto others as you would have them unto you: no, I'm not religious, but please don't f@#* with my code style, or that of anyone else that treats it as an art. I have OCD, and it will do unto you unfathomable horrors if you don't respect it. I am a free software activist. If you don't subscribe to the free software philosophy, I'm likely to annoy you. And you're likely to annoy me. But that's okay; a little bit of friction is healthy. I like to debate and learn from and about others. I like to understand opposing viewpoints. And I will respect your opinions. If we get along without any debates, then we do not have much to learn from one-another, which doesn't make for a very good relationship. I do not believe in flame wars, or disrespect. If I disrespect you, then I have done so unintentionally, and I apologize. But that doesn't mean that I agree with you. I write a lot. Not everybody wants to invest the time reading it. Not all of it is worth reading. You've been reading this, so this should be evident. I often stay up very late hacking and writing things like this, and will be tired the next day. I therefore indulge in vast quantities of coffee. It's unhealthy. I sometimes fall asleep drinking coffee. I do not believe in overtime (personally or empirically), but I do have many personal interests: take advantage of them; they're not hard to find.
