About

I'm a coder and an astrophysicist. My native language is C++. I live in Manhattan. My favorite beer is la fin du monde.

My favorite linux distro is probably Arch, though I have also installed Ubuntu for the very friendly support community. I prefer gnome-shell to unity, but I like the Ubuntu additions to gtk-3+.
