I'm a freelance programmer in Brighton in the UK. I work in lots of languages but I seem to use Python and JavaScript the most. I spend most of my time working from a Brighton co-working space called The Skiff (http://theskiff.org/) which is very nice.

I was on Twitter @almostobsolete but who uses Twitter anymore?

Find me on Mastodon at @almostobsolete@mastodon.me.uk or on Bluesky at https://bsky.app/profile/almostobsolete.net
