### My Work

I'm a software consultant working for

I'm interested in a variety of things in the open source
|
||||||
[Codethink](https://www.codethink.co.uk) in Manchester,
|
world. Perhaps thanks to my pursuit of the perfect Linux desktop,
|
||||||
UK. Our specializaiton is open source software, so this has

this has revolved a lot around reproducible build and deployment
|
||||||
allowed me to directly contribute to a number of open source
|
systems for the last few years, initially starting with
|
||||||
projects, notably
|
[BuildStream](https://buildstream.build/) back in ~2017. I gave a
|

[BuildStream](https://www.gitlab.com/buildstream/buildstream),
|
couple of talks on it at build meetups in the UK in subsequent

years, though sadly most evidence of that appears to have
|
||||||
|
disappeared.
|

|
|
||||||
I've given a couple of talks on it, as well:
|
Since then this has culminated in a strong fondness for
|
||||||
|
[NixOS](https://nixos.org/) and Nix, as its active community makes
|
||||||
|
private use cases much more feasible. As such, I have a vested
|
||||||
|
interest in making this community as large as possible - I post a
|
||||||
|
lot on the NixOS [discourse](https://discourse.nixos.org/) trying
|
||||||
|
to help newcomers out where I can.

I also just enjoy Programming, my core languages for personal work

- Build meetup 2018

are currently probably Rust and Python, although I have a very

|
varied background. This is in part due to my former work as a
|
||||||
|
consultant, which required new languages every few months. I have

experience from JavaScript over Elm to Kotlin, but eventually I

hope I might only need to write Rust ;)

Linux systems - mostly born out of my pursuit of the perfect

Linux desktop (feel free to have a browse through my

[dotfiles](https://github.com/tlater/dotfiles)).

|
|
||||||
I also just enjoy Programming, my core languages currently are
|
|
||||||
Rust, Python, Lisp and JavaScript (including a number of
|
|
||||||
frameworks and tools for these), although I have hopes to
|
|
||||||
eventually reduce these to just Rust ;)
