Your favorite trans techwitch in Central Ohio by a long shot!

Coded so hard that a CoverMyMeds got built. Spent 11 years of my life doing it. Then I burned out, we got bought, and I left. Then I helped small companies fix their tech.

Now I'm building interesting things for worthy causes; serving the queer and trans community around me; raising my two kids with my wife; and generally living my best life.

When I code, it's Elixir or Ruby, or sometimes Lua. Picking up Rust and Go, for no particular reason. I run Arch btw. (No joke I'm considering trying NixOS again...)

@ede1998 Oh damn, thank you! This has been incredibly helpful!

Iran won.

That’s it. That’s the story of Trump’s stupid war.

@MaddieM4 @loon My masochism did start with Linux in 2001, so yeah, this sounds right up my alley!
Tell me you wouldn't unironically buy this phone. I'd buy two, and I don't even run any Apple gear anymore!

I am now sitting on a fresh NixOS install.

It's a stretch, I know, but if by any chance there are opinionated NixOS users who want to point me to a modern, usable config I can start from?

Should I flake? (Did back when but I must admit I barely understand why.)

Should I Home Manager? (This seems like a good idea)

How should I break up files?

How can I make my system as fucking trans/queer/lesbian/sapphic/uwu as possible? (I know you dorks are gonna light this one up)

@loon She doesn't? Not your usual type, then!
@loon But I've also wiped the disk and Shit Is In Motion, so...
@loon Production as in desktop or server use? I'm intrigued now!
@loon Someone whose opinion you hold in higher esteem than mine???
