About
Inaudible Discussion started in Mid-2013, as a way to have an outward facing presence on the internet as I didn't trust social media. Even in 2013, it was a throwback, featuring a hyper-minimalist design, zero-attempts to monetize. For fun, here's the earliest Archive.org capture of my blog. The original goal was to document my professional experiences in web development. It's evolved from a not-very-personal/typo-ridden/quasi-professional blog to a not-very-personal/typo-ridden/Mac blog.
I'm a PNW Front End Web Developer Lead Developer, minority stakeholder in Bandon Rain Cider Company, hobbyist digital musician, and once owner of PS2cheats.com and once contractor for two Comedy Central TV shows and Amazon Prime TV Show.
Topics range from iOS how-tos, Apple/Mac OS X, Audio, hardware hacking, digital politics, design tidbits, and sometimes even web development (which is supposedly what this blog is for). Most posts are either how-tos or reviews of obscure software/audio hardware with the ultimate goal of helping other people out by recreating the internet as it used to be. In the interest of full disclosure, I've never been paid a cent to write a word on this blog.
I started my blog using Tumblr (entirely misunderstanding the platform and using it for actual blogging). I moved out of Tumblr, frustrated by a closed platform around 2015. Since then, I've migrated to Jekyll, which is also imperfect.
I'm not above offers of free stuff or crazy good job offers. ;)
Since I'm not on most social media, I can be reached via my contact page.
