Hi, I'm Tassilo, a 43 y/o guy from Koblenz, Germany. I've been on functional.cafe, then moved on to emacs.ch and now I'm running a self-hosted #gotosocial instance.I'm a software developer by profession. At work, I mostly (have to) do #java, privately I enjoy #rust, #lisp, and other functional languages. I've done a lot #clojure back in university. I like contributing to #foss projects like #emacs and have some projects on my own (see bio).Since about a year, I'm back into #trailrunning and finished my first 100k #ultratrail this August (the #HuBuT). I love long runs in the woods with our #dog thereby listening to some interesting podcast.My family consists of my wife (CEO) and two kids (a 11 y/o son + a 7 y/o daughter, the supervisory board), and me (the janitor).I have a strange musical taste. Either I like something very much or it doesn't kick me at all, i.e., the typical recommendations "if you like foo you will also like bar" never work for me. Anyway, bands/musicians I do like a lot are the #aristocrats, #blackmidi, #buckethead, #necrophagist, #carbomb, and #earth.Politically, I am a left-green idealist who is depressed about the current political situation where right-wing populists are gaining momentum everywhere. #fckafd#introduction
