I'm Ryan Rix and I am: an intolerable Emacs nerd; a privacy activist; computer
infrastructure wonk; public infrastructure wonk-wannabe; learning elixir; a blue smoke
summoner; optimistic; empathetic; on sabbatical; living in Seattle.
After a little over five
crazy years as an engineer at Uber, I'm on
a sabbatical, traveling and dusting off side-projects and habits that I've neglected.
I build decentralized infrastructure in my free time. I build stupid Emacs libraries
and applications. I take public transit. I computer :(.
Some may say that I open source,
too. I buy stupid domains and use them for bad jokes. My dirty secret is that all of my
other jokes are based on old Liam Lynch videos.
