I am a professional jack-of-all-tech: sysop, networking, diag/repair, code monkey, CSR, etc...
I am currently working as a systems administrator in higher education.
I'm happily engaged to a wonderful girl.
I'm interested in the creation, editing, and general design of digital imagery, sound, and video.
I love full, acoustically diverse music with lots of instruments, like jazz fusion and symphonic metal.
I like to watch plot-driven action, mystery, and psychological movies and anime occasionally.
I enjoy writing of all kinds and expression through language; mostly manga nowadays.
I want to learn a foreign language—current interests Finnish and Japanese—but I never get far.
I haven't yet found a culture I find enviable and would love to move out in the middle of nowhere.
If there were any piece of media able to describe me at any moment, this is it. [looptube.io]

My process is thinking... thinking... and thinking. If you have a better way, please let me know.
‎ ― Hayao Miyazaki

Sometimes I think the urge to believe in our own worldview is our most powerful intellectual imperative, the mind's equivalent of feeding, fighting, and fornicating. People will eagerly twist facts into wholly unrecognizable shapes to fit them into existing suppositions. They'll ignore the obvious, select the irrelevant, and spin it all into a tapestry of self-deception, solely to justify an idea, no matter how impoverished or self-destructive.
‎ ― Barry Eisler. The Last Assassin

He that would live in peace and at ease, must not speak all he knows, nor judge all he sees.
‎ ― Benjamin Franklin. Poor Richard's Almanac

I always aim for something unexpected that hasn't been done before. Art begins with questions like "why the hell has he done that?"
‎ ― Kari Tykkylainen

If a maintenance programmer can't quote entire Monty Python movies from memory, he or she has no business being a programmer.
‎ ― Roedy Green. How To Write Unmaintainable Code

Normal people believe that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Engineers believe that if it ain't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet.
‎ ― Scott Adams

The most effective debugging tool is still careful thought, coupled with judiciously placed print statements.
‎ ― Brian Kerninghan. Unix for Beginners, 1979

The wise man therefore always holds in these matters to this principle of selection: he rejects pleasures to secure other greater pleasures, or else he endures pains to avoid worse pains.
‎ ― Marcus Tullius Cicero. De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum, trans. H. Rackham (1914)
