Feel free to reach out for advice on startups, devtools, or programming: [email protected]

Inexplicably I now help lead a Palestinian advocacy org called Tech For Palestine, which I founded with a core group of about 40 others.

I've been working on Darklang since late 2016. I'm taking a hiatus to work on Tech For Palestine. You can follow that work in various places:

• Darklang blog,
• changelog,
• Discord, and [mailing
• list](https://darklang.com/mailing-list)

• Github (me, Darklang, Tech For Palestine)
• Mastodon (me, Darklang)
• Twitch (me, Darklang)
• Twitter (me, Darklang, Tech for Palestine)

I previously was founder and CEO of CircleCI. I wrote a bunch of early stuff on the CircleCI blog, including this piece that I'm extremely proud of.

I also did a PhD in Compilers and Static Analysis, and my research papers are online (also includes some research on sorting algorithms)
