   It's #introduction time!

   - 🇮🇹 geek in his mid-thirties, based in 🇳🇱

   - 🎓 M.Sc in computer engineering.

   - My current job is about fixing and automating global supply chains, one line of code at the time, but I have worked in a wide range of industries over the past (nearly) two decades.

   - My hobbies often involve automating everything around me.

   - :linux: #Linux user since 2001. My experience as a Linux admin started back in a time when I used run my IRC and Apache servers on a repurposed Pentium 1 under my bed, and it still took about 10 💾 to install a full Slackware system.

   - :arch: #Arch Linux and rolling release enthusiast.

   - 🛠 Creator and main developer of #Platypush (https://platypush.tech), an open-source (mainly :python: and :vue:), general-purpose platform/framework to automate everything - from smart devices, to cloud services, to robots, to DevOps operations, to everything in between. With hundreds of available integrations, you can think of it as IFTTT+Tasker+SmartThings on steroids, scriptable, and runnable on almost any device. Or maybe like HomeAssistant's lighter brother.

   - Admin of https://social.platypush.tech, a Mastodon instance where I may talk a lot about Platypush, automation, programming, electronics and maths. I tend to write a lot, so if you're looking for an instance with a 10,000 characters per toot limit...

   - Looking for relays with instances dedicated to similar topics. My dream would be to build an experience, when it comes to #Fediverse #relays, that is akin to curated #OPML lists, where admins can create curated federated experiences for the users on their platforms, rather than the open-to-everything overwhelming stream of toots on the federated timeline that most of the relays provide nowadays.

   - 🤖 Machine-learning enthusiast. I have published a book on it https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-1-4842-6821-6, with simple computer vision exercises that can be run on a #RaspberryPi, and I did some academic research back in time where neural networks were still a green field https://fabiomanganiello.com/#research, and I never stop learning new stuff.

   - 🧪️ Physics, chemistry, biology, maths and astronomy enthusiast.

   - 🎵 Music addict, 🎸and 🎹 player, and occasional composer/producer You can find some of my music here https://open.spotify.com/artist/5H6BJfHec8qLnkm0S2HkxO and here https://soundcloud.com/blacklight01

   - I may often write about random politics/economics/philosophy. I may sometimes be very passionate on topics such as open-source, open data, open protocols, tolerance and social inequalities. I mostly belong to the progressive/social-democratic field. You are welcome to try and change my mind, as long as you do it in a civilized and data-driven way.

   - 🏄 and 🛹️ rider. And, as a good Dutch resident, 🚲 enthusiast.

   - 👪 Full-time father.
