My last #introduction was back in June 2019, so I guess a refresher couldn't hurt!
I'm mostly a tired father of 2 that started skateboarding as a mid-life crisis kind of thing. My arm still hurts from a fall a couple of weeks ago...
I'm a software dev in Melbourne, Australia, working at a company so small they made me CTO.
I'm, like, Junior-CTO at best, tbh.
I used to be a high school English teacher, so I get a bit too 'splainy and monologuey from time to time.

And since I'll probably post / connect with people around my work stuff too, here's the stack I work with:
#javascript / #js
#reactjs / #react

Also increasingly interested in #rust (but no progress with learning it yet)
@JacksonBates always love hearing about Laravel; it's where I got my start on OOP and TDD
