+				I’m Thomas, a self-taught recreational programmer.  I like simplicity,
+				and I take pride in actually understanding how my code works.  This
+				means I am deathly allergic to many things that plague modern software
+				development.  Things that include but are not limited to:
+
+				@ul {
+					li {-All web frameworks}
+					li {-C++ and JavaScript}
+					li {-CLEAN}
+					li {-CMake}
+					li {-DRY}
+					li {-Over abstraction}

+					Prof. Pickle on Instructables
+				}
+				by the way.  Most of his stuff seems to have been deleted all these
+				years later, but he was the guy that first got me into programming when
+				I was in elementary school.

+				These days my interests lie mostly in CLI development.  I take a great
+				joy in writing simple yet highly effective tools to solve problems not
+				only in an easy-yet-extensible manner.  I think my batch file-renaming
+				utility @em {-mmv} @a href="TODO" {-does a great job at that}.

+				That being said, I also have a great interest in operating systems,
+				shells, and really anything that could be considered remotely low-level.
+				I’m not totally afraid of front-end development, although I @em {-did}
+				write this site in plain HTML and CSS because modern HTML frameworks are
+				the worst excuses for software I have ever seen.
+			}
+
+			p {=
+				At the end of the day, I am a recreational programmer at heart and can
+				and will code whatever interests me in the moment (CLI tools, emulators,
+				Unicode libraries, etc.).  I reject the premise that you need to write
+				software for other people, that other people will use, or even software
+				that you will use.  I code for the joy of programming.
