Software tinkerer and serial re-inventor of wheels. It may not be the fastest way to get from point A to point B but you sure do learn a lot about wheels. I've written and maintain a few tiny open-source projects: 1. pymonad - a monadic functional programming library for python 2. ticklish_ui - a declarative wrapper around the tkinter UI library for python 3. enumerated_types - full featured enumerated types for javascript
