<h1>Hello world! 👋</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>

You have reached the personal homepage of <strong>Noah Petherbridge</strong>.

I'm an introvert and a high-functioning computer nerd who lives near Portland, OR. I
|
|
enjoy deep conversations about a wide variety of things -- you could say my pool of
|
|
knowledge is (on average) meters deep but kilometers wide. There are a handful of things I get <em>really</em>
|
|
passionate and could talk forever about <small>(such as programming,
|
|
Linux, and whatever's my latest obsession)</small> but also love to learn anything I
|
|
can about the nature of the universe, astrophysics, spirituality, and all kinds of
|
|
other rabbit holes.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
I write about random stuff on my <a href="https://www.kirsle.net/" target="_blank">web blog</a> and
|
|
maintain a handful of open source projects on
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/kirsle" target="_blank">GitHub</a>
|
|
and <a href="https://git.kirsle.net/" target="_blank">git.kirsle.net</a>.

<h2>Software Development</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
I'm a full stack web developer and I program in Go, Python, and
|
|
JavaScript. One of my largest personal projects is
|
|
<a href="https://www.rivescript.com/" target="_blank">RiveScript</a>,
|
|
a scripting language for programming chat bots — matching a user's
|
|
message to a certain response. I programmed five different ports of
|
|
RiveScript in different programming languages: Perl, Java, JavaScript,
|
|
Python, and Go.

|
My web blog, <a href="https://www.kirsle.net/" target="_blank">Kirsle.net</a>,
|
|
is written in Go and I keep that source code <a href="https://github.com/kirsle/blog" target="_blank">here</a>
|
|
for now. Previously it was written in
|
|
<a href="https://git.kirsle.net/apps/rophako" target="_blank">Python</a>
|
|
and its <a href="https://git.kirsle.net/kirsle/kirsle.net" target="_blank">HTML pages</a>
|
|
are readable too. The site you're reading is a simple Python-generated
|
|
static site <a href="https://git.kirsle.net/kirsle/noah.is">here</a>.

|
|
of my work on my <a href="/portfolio">Portfolio</a> page. Also see my
