Hello! I’m Ben. I hereby plant my flag on this little island of the internet. Here I write about tech and other things that interest me. I also maintain a knowledge base of notes, links, ideas, and learnings. Here are some curated lists, and some disjointed thoughts.
queer • reads mostly fiction • geocaching • writes fiction (but doesn’t publish) • serial hobbyist • metalhead stuck in the past • plushie enthusiast • leathercraft • other crafts • video games • sucker for the found family trope • pour-over coffee • spins around on poles
I work at Carousell as a backend engineer on an as-of-yet unreleased product, and have held past roles in Internal Products, Trust & Safety, Seller Experience, and Platforms.
