Hi, I'm Ash. I'm a male hobby programmer in my 40s whose politics have been described as "lefty liberal". I work at a UK university as the general technical member of a research team in the Archaeology department, as they use an open source project for their database which isn't very non-programmer-friendly (to put it politely). I genuinely can't remember how I first heard of you, but I subscribe via RSS and have done for a while. Oh, and I rather like Doctor Who.
