Tech For Palestine

Inexplicably I now help lead a Palestinian advocacy org called Tech For Palestine, which I founded with a core group of about 40 others.

Darklang

I've been working on Darklang since late 2016. I'm taking a hiatus to work on Tech For Palestine. You can follow that work in various places:

Socials

Past self

I previously was founder and CEO of CircleCI. I wrote a bunch of early stuff on the CircleCI blog, including this piece that I'm extremely proud of.

I also did a PhD in Compilers and Static Analysis, and my research papers are online (also includes some research on sorting algorithms)
