I am: computer scientist, family man, lapsed academic, bicycle/motorcylist, open source/access/society/… zealot, music lover.

A major, ongoing project for me seems to be publishing Oakland Police Department crime statistics, as OakCrime.org. This effort is done as was originally part of OpenOakland.org, a Code for America brigade.  There have been a few other projects over the years, and then there are some other, odd and definitely not prose passages that some how have made it out into the world.
