Hello everyone! I'm Marcus and I wrangle data, write code, empower teams and secure networks. I used to do 3D game programming, too, but most of that went forgotten.
When not in front of a keyboard, I like to go hiking or make music, playing bass guitar and singing. And I love tabletop roleplaying games - low on rules, high on storytelling and characters!

Learned Something New
+ 1
Spent last weekend learning Rust and Svelte by writing a complexity poker app. Source code now available at https://github.com/milgner/compoker, app live at https://poker.illunis.net

Still very basic and lots of things to do, but it's a start. Svelte has become my favourite front-end tech overnight.

Learned Something New
First time working with Linux networking namespaces for solving an issue where two networks, each with its own interface, were using the same IP subnet. Great mechanism which allows dealing with even the most complex networking setups!
