Hi there 👋

I'm Auguste Baum! I'm a software engineer; talk to me about (in no particular order):

• functional programming
  • Particularly the "effect handlers" approach to side-effects (e.g. koka and unison)
• Nix (I run NixOS by the way)
• Python, especially with Pydantic and Hypothesis; also Textual
• Rust
• RSS
• Alternative Git workflows (as in, not GitHub)
  • Happy user of jj
• free-and-open-source software.

My professional experience

• 🔭 I am currently working as a software engineer at Probabl.
• I am co-founder and former CTO of Resilio, a start-up promoting digital sobriety through ad-hoc consulting (life-cycle assessments) and solutions to empower consultants.
• I got acquainted with Nix by working on ngipkgs, a collection of Nix packages for NGI-funded software.
