Wishlist: If you should ever feel the need to spend money on me,
here's a good way to do so. I like postcards, too — see

Frequently-answered questions
Occupation
I am an associate software engineer at an LA company
with good open source intentions.
I am also a volunteer sysadmin for HCoop, the Internet Hosting
Cooperative.
I work on various Free Software projects in my spare time.
No. I disliked many things about being
an undergraduate student. Getting rid of lectures and replacing
them with well-written explanatory texts and optional Socratic
seminar style group help sessions would have probably been
sufficient to make me like being a student.
What do I want out of life
Some distinction, some responsibility,
decent quality of living, good friends, stable income, some time to
myself for hobbies, to stay up-to-date with computer-related
technology, to encourage various freedoms (Free Software, anti-DRM)
GNOME apps or KDE apps
GNOME apps
Window manager
XFCE (narrow vertically-centered right sidebar, task
list on bottom, no top panel, Tango theme for icons, my own
"Saner-dawn" theme for XFCE and GNOME apps, Microcurve window theme,
right-aligned window titles, snap-to-edges window movement, smart
placement of new windows, focus follows mouse)
Version control system
git. I used to be a fan of Gnu Arch, but it
failed to take the leap into 2006 with SHA1-based content
addressing.
Applications
Web browser
Initially Kazehakase, but now Firefox. I sometimes
use emacs-w3m to browse web pages quickly from within Emacs.
