he/him, Seattle, cities should be for everyone
Pinned
Hi

I'm a software person keen on public interest technology.

I helped create civiform.us to make it easier for Seattleites to access affordability programs and then spent a few years bringing it to other govs around in the US.

Other interests:
- the outdoors
- piano
- transit
- mutual aid
- food
funny how it's almost never actual writers self-describing as "storytellers"

"[The Trump] admin looks at the flourishing of city life wherever it may be across this country as a threat to its agenda."

Dems need to recognize and confront this directly. The Trump admin needs to immiserate cities to feed the political narrative that gives it power.

Steven Pinker having any public relevance in 2025 is an indication that decorum libs have learned nothing about anything over the last 8+ years.

I'd really like a CLI plugin that shows snippets of the relevant docs for the command and flags I'm using as I type. (This should not be LLM based because I need those docs to be accurate)
