About the Baer
Hallo Welt!
I am a seasoned technologist, former Crowd Sourcerer, and general tinkerer with a penchant for chasing after shiny things.
Interests

My interests are broad and varied. I'm always looking for new things to learn and explore. Here are a few of the things I'm passionate about:

Hardware

I'm a long time lover of microcontrollers and hobby electronics. I love working with the Ardiuno, Teensy, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi platforms.

Generative AI

I enjoy exploring new LLMs and their applications within agents and othere higher order use cases. I believe LLMs will fundamentally change the way we interact with technology and design systems and products.

Software Development

I've been hacking and writing code since I was a kid. From my early days with BASIC on my TRS-80 to my current work with Typescript and other modern languages, I love building things with code and learning new languages and design patterns.

Cryptography

I have a deep interest in cryptography and it's many applications. I believe cryptography is a fundamental to privacy and becomes increasingly important as we continue to enmesh our lives with technology.

DevOps

I'm passionate about automation and making life easier for developers. I love automating and streamlining SDLC and building out CI/CD pipelines.

Blockchain

I'm fascinated by the potential of blockchain and it's many applications and have dabbled in this space. I believe blockchains will enable decentralized systems and applications which will allow for a more resilient, secure, and private internet.

Projects

Various and sundry things
