Hello! I'm Mark Powers. This is my website. I started it back in 2018 when I
wanted to share my process of learning to bake bread. Now it's mostly just a
general blog, but also where I host a lot of my [projects](/projects).

Occupation
: Software Engineer - DevOps Lead at [Chameleon
Cloud](https://chameleoncloud.org)

Hobbies
: Programming, video games, reading, bicycling, woodworking, chess, cooking,
disc golf

Operating System
: Regolith Linux — I like how little fuss Ubuntu is, it runs any I want without
too much hassle. Regolith is great for people like me, who are also want to
try/use i3 in an environment they are comfortable with.

Editor
: Vim — I stick mostly to defaults. I like that pretty much on any system,
it'll have this editor that I am used to, and Vim is very powerful with enough
practice.

RSS Reader
: Miniflux — I like being able to browse feeds anywhere. Previously, I used
FreshRSS, but my install broke and I couldn't fix it. I have over 500 feeds at
the moment, and the fetching service of Miniflux works well.
