Short personal bio

Ever since my first Zilog Z80 computer I've been writing code. I did not have an assembler at first, so I hand-typed hex opcodes. Since then, I have discovered assemblers and compilers, and I remain fascinated by compilers and compiler techniques. My main interests are smart contracts, consensus, compilers, and kernels.

...

I have contributed to many open source projects, from a document importer for LibreOffice, emulator components for mame, over 380 commits for the linux kernel and I maintain the infrared components in the linux kernel. I contributed eBPF IR decoding to linux.

Previously I spent 12 years at IBM, where I worked on telecoms software written in C and I lead a team. I am now independent.
