Background

About Jonathan Huff

Rigorously rational, self-effacing, and technical. I seek deep learning about my interests so I can make educated decisions. I love coming to understand complex and valuable systems. I value aesthetics and thoughtful UX, but in a fight between form and function, I'd side with function. Done is generally better than perfect. Useful systems can be messy, and I have the expertise to ask the right questions about the whole stack—from ether frames and IP addresses, object code, cache lines and page faults to session variables, cookies, and SQL injection. My expertise is in computer systems generally—integrating component systems into a more complex and more valuable system—because working systems are made up of people, concepts and business models. CPU’s, instruction sets, transistors, RAM and resonant circuits are just tools that serve the goals of the business.
