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

34 * Journal
35
36 I used to keep a [[http://journal.unknownlamer.org/][journal]] where I used to send ideas out into the Ether
37 before reformulating them into coherent essays for the site sitting
38 before you, occasionally interspersed with commentary on my mundane
39 daily existence. As livejournal has sold out almost all of their
40 former ideals I no longer use this, but might eventually set up a
41 weblogging system locally.
42
43 [[http://unknownlamer.org/index.1999_2006.html][The Old Site]] is still available. Links to pages there will remain
44 stable indefinitely so as to not break the Holy Command of Our Sovran
45 Hypertextia. Be warned I may have been a teenager when most of it was
46 written.
47
48 * About Me / Contact
49
50 I am a mild mannered hacker and metalhead.
51
52 I hack Lisp and am on the board of a [[http://hcoop.net][hosting cooperative]] that you
53 should join.
54
55 I welcome criticism and suggestions to improve anything I have
56 written here.
57
58 ** GnuPG
59
60 [[email-key.asc][BCE8 C667 7CD2 7139 735C 2F99 DB28 E55B 381E 3395]] General use key. I
61 sign my mail with this and you can send me encrypted messages using it
62 if you fear the orbital mind control lasers.
63
64 [[software-signing-key.asc][F169 C3BC 9751 843F 9497 42BE 3F59 9AAE 7C43 A9F4]] (key used for
65 signing software release tarballs). **Notice**: I forgot the passphrase
66 and lost the revocation (I know, I'm a terrible person) and so this
67 key was regenerated =2010-04-16=. Or perhaps *The Network* got to me.
68
69 ** Email
70
71 =clinton at unknownlamer dot gro= (a simple puzzle)
72
73 ** Jabber
74
75 =clinton at hcoop dot net= (this also works as an email address and must
76 be protected as a result)
77
78 ** IRC
79
80 I hang out on Freenode and oftc as =unknown_lamer= in various
81 channels. =/whois= will guide you to me.
82
83 ** Résumé
84
85 I am a programmer by trade, and as such have a (potentially) fancy and
86 most certainly oudated [[files/resume.pdf][Résumé]]. I am quite familiar with [[http://common-lisp.net/project/ucw/][UnCommon Web]]
87 and Common Lisp in general. This, naturally, makes me pretty
88 unemployable.

90 ** A Picture

92 [[img/photos/me/2009-10-31.jpg][A Furry Young Lad]]
93
94 ** Site Software
95
96 I use [[http://www.mwolson.org/projects/MuseMode.html][muse-mode]] to author the site because [[http://emacswiki.org][Emacs]] is all powerful, and
97 the closest approximation to a good user interface available on any
98 modern computer system. Muse allows me to simply write with very low
99 overhead (I spend most of my time in Emacs, and having hyperlinks and
100 a reasonable preview in the file buffer is quite useful). The file
101 format is quite hairy, but luckily the code is Free Software and, if
102 needed, I could easily write a publishing backend that transcoded my
103 site to an easier to parse format. There are advantages to being a
104 programmer.
105
106 I use darcs to push updates to the site and manage my muse files. As
107 such there is a handy [[http://feeds.unknownlamer.org/rss/site-updates][updates feed]] courtesy of a small Lisp program I
108 wrote and darcs.
109
110 A [[Site Software][more detailed description]] of my setup is available.
