I'm (trying to be) a Linux kernel developer, working for @facebook (formerly Microsoft, Red Hat and Canonical).
I've been using Linux since 2003, my favourite distros are Debian and Fedora, and KDE Plasma is my desktop of choice.
I'm a big open source supporter, so I contribute to OSS projects whenever possible.
To name a few:
Linux,
systemd,
OpenWrt,
iproute2,
Snap,
Open vSwitch,
RPM,
u-root,
SANE,
BusyBox,
and lots of small fixes and PRs here and there... ๐
Despite my efforts to contribute to science, my most recognized works are April fools:
- https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2016-April/069898.html
- https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2019-04/msg00075.html
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/4/1/335

or silly sound generating scripts, e.g. perl -e 'for($t=0;;$t++){print chr($t*($t>>8|$t>>13)&255)}' |aplay
