Hello Friends! I'm on the job market now! I have a oodles of knowledge for all the software performance engineering tricks in Rust, Julia and other systems languages and would love to work with teams that are looking to skill up in those respects, from back ends to big data crunching!

Please enjoy this sick frame I saw yesterday (YES, it is fully lug welded.)

Somebody do something! It’s the second day of straight rain and my tummy hurts :(

Excellent day to go see a procession of 100 tubas in Fort Greene park.

President Trump's "skinny" budget request absolutely eviscerates scientific research funding. The @aaas.org estimates the request would constitute an 82.5% reduction in research spending (and that's just the agencies named in the request).

Why is Brew, a beloved Bed-Stuy bar, the latest hot spot for Black New Yorkers closing its doors? According to the team behind the bar, they're another casualty of one local NYPD precinct's vendetta against the Tompkins Avenue Open Street.

My friend is on WNYC *right now* talking about cycling in the city! www.wnyc.org/streams/
