Hi all. I’m Adam (adenoz), and this is my first time on the Fediverse.

I’m an Australian data professional, and I’m typically always working on at least one side project at any one time. I won’t be writing about my $work, but I will happily write about my various side projects and interests.

I really enjoy working with #duckdb and #ggplot2 as well as finding ways to use #rustlang and tools written in rust. I have a blog built with #zola where I’ll keep writing longer form things.

I like keeping up with global events and geopolitical related matters. I especially like combining those themes with data. Simple examples of interesting things include GDELT, news text like in Factiva, and Google Trends data.

At the moment, I’m writing a native mac app that will be a query and analytics studio. That’s all I have for now on that, though more will come in due course.

I like #linux, using #nushell and #HelixEditor, as well as the great software on #macos. My current favourite IDE is #zededitor. Sometimes (often?), I’m torn between Linux and Mac for very different reasons.

I’m now rambling, so I’ll stop there for now.
