Epiktistes is my home in the Fediverse. It is an instance of Ktistec, a single-user ActivityPub server like Mastodon, but with fewer users and fewer commits. Here's my introduction (last updated early-2025).

I wrote a series of posts about optimizing the performance of the Ktistec server, its build time, and its executable size: part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, and part 5.

Some things I regularly write about, organized by hashtag:

I also wrote some #pointfreeverse.

I found this sticker in a box of miscellany. Based on the things it's stored alongside it's between 10 and 20 years old—I remember being handed it but I don't remember where or when. I'd intended to stick it on my laptop.

not attending #worldcon / #laconv this year... it's the week before #dragoncon starts. even sadder, i just realized that worldcon 2027 in montréal is on the exact same dates as dragoncon.

(dragoncon is the annual family vacation, so it's not negotiable)
