I've been writing silly scripts and
maybe-code.just since 2009,
but,
please friends
don't get it twisted,
it's just that:
silly.

I write code for myself, my family, and very occasionally for causes I feel worthwhile, like inclusivity in music education, to name one and seulement one. I know I'm already wasting your time ;)
e.g., and wholeheartedly not, i.e.1, as a mathematics tutor, manual trigonometry to check student work is annoying.
Unless you've had to manually adjust quadrants hundreds of times in the last 3 years after pulling an arctangent, don't look at me.
If you have, I would hope this ugly tool could save you time too: https://protract.ing
I agree that code is Craft; the desktop workstation an atelier; not a newfnagled teletype1
and I do not claim credit for that conception, right? It was, once upon a time, a movement. I learned of it by starting to explore the works of sociologist Richard Sennet.
I believe in FOSS wholeheartedly, and I mean wholeheartedly...
...wholeheartedly.
I have strong feelings about large language models, indentation, and aligning = and ::, /etc/1; not that it matters2
*he likes french film1
matthieu
likes to write programs that save him time.he plays instruments;
and they’re usually made of brass,
and they’re usually large, but not usually always.sometimes, maybe even vestigial
like a sackbut or a serpent or an (awful)cleide1 ;)he likes Linux and Unix history and all things FOSS.
he doesn't like Microsoft Office, but he'll use it when cornered.he understands that the jazzers who understand
i.e., and whole-heart-ed-ly not e.g.,
who aren't pedantic pissants ;)
are talking about the same things as the people who implore for open source......but he doesn't claim to be clever or special or smart for that; it's called common-sense.
...
he doesn't like indentation or competing standards, but he does like POSIX for the most part <3.
he likes shells and keybinds and symlinks.
and walking his dog Moby at sunrise,
but he's diametrically opposed to waking up before six-forty-five.he does like daylight savings,
but only periodically1 ;).
he likes a minimum of six car lengths on I-81,though he dislikes the fact he feels on the 'quotoadian'1
he doesn't get thrown a bone of one1.he dislikes the distillation of nuance
and the erasure of historical asides..
he's liked writing scripts since age 11,
and 'disliked’ writingcodesince age 12

I take myself wholly unseriously; I'm just here to tinker1.
