#title The Home of Your Friendly Neighborhood Terrorist
#author Clinton Ebadi

Greetings, my name is Clinton and you have stumbled upon my personal
website. This is a continually evolving project as most things on the
web are.

** Boring Technical Stuff (I Know I Know, You're Probably Here for This)

 - [[Code]]
 - [[Lisp][Lisp Stuff]]
 - [[Android]]

** Perhaps Interesting

 - [[Cooking]]
 - [[Homebrewing]]
 - [[Book List][Things I Have Read]]

** *Et cetera*

 - [[Music]]

** Unabashed Navel Gazing

* Journal

I keep a [[http://journal.unknownlamer.org/][journal]] where I used to send ideas out into the Ether before
reformulating them into coherent essays for the site sitting before
you, occasionally interspersed with commentary on my mundane daily
existence. As livejournal has sold out almost all of their former
ideals I no longer use this, but will eventually set up a weblogging
system locally.

[[http://unknownlamer.org/index.1999_2006.html][The Old Site]] is still available. Links to pages there will remain
stable indefinitely so as to not break the Holy Command of Our Sovran
Hypertextia.

* About Me / Contact

I am a mild mannered hacker and metalhead.

I welcome criticism and suggestions to improve anything I have
written here.

** GnuPG

[[public-key.asc][EE29 3A02 4527 0464 94F5 8EB8 2D27 EF5F D1F0 AEFE]] (key used for
signing software release tarballs).

** Email

=clinton at unknownlamer dot gro= (a simple puzzle)

** Jabber

=clinton at hcoop dot net= (this also works as an email address and must
be protected as a result)

** IRC

I hang out on Freenode and oftc as =unknown_lamer= in various
channels. =/whois= will guide you to me.

** Résumé

I am a programmer by trade, and as such have a (potentially) fancy
[[files/resume.pdf][Résumé]]. I am quite familiar with [[http://common-lisp.net/project/ucw/][UnCommon Web]] and Common Lisp in
general. This, naturally, makes me unemployable.

** A Picture

[[img/photos/me/2009-10-31.jpg][A Furry Young Lad]]

** Site Software

I use [[http://www.mwolson.org/projects/MuseMode.html][muse-mode]] to author the site because [[http://emacswiki.org][Emacs]] is all powerful, and
the closest approximation to a good user interface available on any
modern computer system. Muse allows me to simply write with very low
overhead (I spend most of my time in Emacs, and having hyperlinks and
a reasonable preview in the file buffer is quite useful). The file
format is quite hairy, but luckily the code is Free Software and, if
needed, I could easily write a publishing backend that transcoded my
site to an easier to parse format. There are advantages to being a
programmer.

I use darcs to push updates to the site and manage my muse files. As
such there is a handy [[http://feeds.unknownlamer.org/rss/site-updates][updates feed]] courtesy of a small Lisp program I
wrote and darcs.

A [[Site Software][more detailed description]] of my setup is available.
