About Stochastic Geometry
This is a journal for myself for random thoughts on academia, system admin, development and things linked directly or tangentially to those areas.
I’ve spent the last few years working for several small companies and startups, usually as the generalist on the team. I enjoy working on the back-end fundamentals of a system, and the further down the software stack the better. I’ve maintained legacy systems, developed existing systems, installed new systems and architected entirely bespoke solutions. I’ve worked in the back office, I’ve worked facing the client, and I’ve pitched to VCs. I’m happiest when working on problems that are more substance than hype, more technical than marketing, and where the problem pushes me to new technical limits.
Previously I’ve worked
- in C doing low-level cross-platform networking stuff, writing RADIUS modules and other client-server systems
- in Python doing several small projects and scripting tasks
- in Java writing back-end code for Tomcat-based stacks
- in PHP for a few years doing LAMP-based website stuff
- in C
