In the daytime I write #Ruby, #Python, #JavaScript, and sometimes #Kotlin -- all to help keep other companies' Web sites running.
On Fridays I work on #FreeSoftware and #OpenSource in sh and Ruby and Kotlin, and also lead our #security/#infosec group -- all to help keep #thoughtbot running.
At night I write #C on #OpenBSD.
