PhilipTaronQ/README.md

Hi there 👋

I'm Philip Taron, a Principal Member of Technical Staff with Qumulo. This is my work-only account. @philiptaron is my other one.

I'm interested in:

  1. Immutable, reproducible infrastructure. Nix is what I'm learning and applying at work right now (as of April 2024).
  2. AI, especially large language models that are self-hosted and open-source.
  3. Distributed systems, especially filesystems and other core storage technology. While Qumulo is a closed-source product, I'm excited about what I can share with the world of what we've built.
  4. Build systems, especially incremental ones. I've written one used internally at Qumulo (with @ericyoungblut) and I'm always seeking other performant and hermitic ways of taking raw code and making something useful.
  5. Code generation. Writing code that writes code allows me to be far more productive and powerful as an individual developer than I would be otherwise.
  6. Applied cryptography and PKI infrastructures, especially for the software supply chain. The idea of being able to have real provenance for all built code is super exciting to me. We're pretty far off, but I can see better from here.
  7. Technology that fundamentally reduces complexity. I'm a huge fan of Tailscale and their vision of a fully secured network that needs no authentication because every service has a crytographically assured knowledge of the peer that's connecting. That's amazing.
