#Introduction

I am a street photographer, making candid photographs of people in public spaces. Documenting our public areas in this way allows me to capture the humour, mundanity, beauty and inelegance of daily life in our urban environment.

I am also a technology leader working in the mobility and fleet automotive sector, with occasional toots about EVs.

Likely to toot about:

- #StreetPhotography
- #Bristol (UK)
- #Caturday
- #Doughnuts
- #Coffee
- Tech
- Politics (Local & national)

#introduction

#Georgia native, married, #childfreebychoice, lived within 40 miles of #Atlanta all my life. My wife is an #audiobook #narrator and I direct her when she’s narrating.

I have been a #software engineer, professional #SCUBA diver and freelance #photographer.

I ride a #motorcycle, am an #AFOL, and a #coffee and #espresso enthusiast.

I play #guitar, #ukulele and #banjo and am learning #piano. I do #HamRadio (N4XOK) and hunt #POTA and #SOTA activators.

I guess I’ll try to start the new year by providing another #intro! I’ve seen a few others doing so and I feel like joining in:

Hello! My name is Benedict. I’m currently living in Kyoto, #Japan and working for a well-established #coffee company as a lead #barista.

I’m also very interested in tech! (i.e. #productivity #apps, hardware/peripheral #design, all things #Apple)

Others interests: #craftbeer #cocktails #hospitality #mentalhealth #adhd #nhl #linguistics #history #japanese

よろしく🤙

So finally making an #introduction post.

I play the bassoon and compose and arrange music. I'm also probably the person that helps your parents with their tech, especially of the Apple kind.
My heritage is French Canadian with a little Polish thrown in for the crazy. I'm working on bettering my French again but understand more than I can say.

A few things that I love or find interesting:
#ClassicalMusic
#Music
#Soundtrack
#Bassoon
#Coffee
#FountainPen
#VideoGames
#Composing
#Apple
#Genealogy
#tech
#coding
#hobonichi

Hopeland - Ian McDonald - Ian is one of those writers who stuns me every time, I forget just how much I love his writing until I'm reading his work. This is his latest novel, apparently 13 years in the making and a slab of a book at more than 650 paged. But from page one I was hooked by the language and the character and the burgeoning sprawl of ideas. 1/2

A quick #introduction post.

I'm a 40-something #SouthAfrican with an obsession over #ThinkPads, #FountainPens, and #books. Powered by the elixir of life, #Coffee.

I infrequently blog and pretend to become a writer of sorts one day in the future. You could definitely call me a "Jack of all trades, master of none."

I've got a couple of other Mastodon accounts as well, @merkaba@mstdn.games for my #gaming posts, and @merkaba@bookstodon.com for all my #reading posts.

#Introduction #introductions

About me (Continues):
Hails from #Maine but thrives in the tropics, my interests include (non-exhaustive, and in no particular order) : #sudoku #coffee #PuertoRico culture, all things #Apple, functional #3Dmodeling and FDM #3DPrinting. Generally posts in en-US but can follow and reply in es-??, fr-FR, and pt-BR. Fascinated by #etymology. I am into #Scifi, but no wizards and dragons.

(Yes, it ‘drags on’)

So here's my #introduction - I'm a pathologist in Houston, Texas who has a love for music, tech, space, science, tennis, all things Scotch and whisky, coffee, chocolate, desserts, etc.
Although medicine is my profession I have a very strong passion for music - my alter ego is @auditorymusings where I write a music blog and post music-related things

#Introduction time:

I’m a #TCK—American by birth—currently living and working #remote in Turkey. I love an excuse to #travel.

I’m becoming the #AnalyticsEngineer for a home builder, where we’re building out a #datastack after years of me doing #SQL and pivot tables in #Excel. I’m excited to be on #datadon.

I also do #photography and #VideoProduction—both #freelance and as a hobby. I’ve been running #sound for #church services since college.

I’m picky about my #tech (#Apple) and my #coffee.

So, I guess by way of #introduction

TL;DR - I'm Cassian. Computer Monkey. Father. Internet junkie. Mac, Linux, iPhone user. Intermittent runner. Occasional photographer and gamer. Lapsed cyclist. Viewer of Sports.

At work I'm an engineering leader for a big software company that makes some issue tracking stuff - you've probably heard of them, but I don't speak for them (updated 2023-09). I come from a systems engineering background, so I'm super passionate about working hard to be lazy and getting infrastructure / deployment / operations / etc out of the way so my engineers (and our customers) can get on with just building cool stuff.

At home I used to have hobbies, but now I have two young kids. I believe that you can love #StarTrek and #StarWars. I make / drink a lot of #coffee - #espresso and #v60 and #aeropress. I'm a sucker for "reality" cooking shows. I love watching sport, and try to keep a pretty open mind as to what sport it is, but I particularly enjoy #AFL, #F1 / #Formula1, and #Cricket.

In a past life I worked in political polling, so every once in a while I get excited by politics. Then I spend some time following it. Then I often end up wanting to scoop my eyes out with a rusty spoon.

When I can, I fire up the gaming laptop - mostly games that I bought many years ago and just keep playing - #EuroTruckSimulator2 #halo #diablo3

New server, new #introduction!

I'm a software developer in BC, Canada, currently working at an early stage startup.

I'm a creator at heart, and I love to tinker. My interests include hobby coding, #coffee, #lego, #formula1, writing #blog posts, and spending time with my beautiful wife and daughter. I love learning.

Ultimately I'm here meet new people and learn/share about the wonderful world of software development. Say hi!
