I have lived in Qualicum Beach on the east coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia for more than 40 years. The avatar is my great great grandfather James Charles William Walker (b. Glasgow 1820, d. South Tilley NB 1889)

Working in infosec, from my island paradise.
Fascinated by how tech is (ab)used in real life, and how it might help, or hinder our lives.
Love messing with programming languages, photography, getting outside.

Married to a wonderful wife with with two adult sons, living in Calgary. I like getting out on my bike. I care about social justice.

Unemployed or semi-retired? I would actually love to work (part time? consultation?) with purpose.

Ph.D. in physics and nearly 28 year career in IT.

"The purpose of a system is what it does."

Furious as a colorless green idea.

I argue semantics, professionally.

I also swear a lot.
