Hi there, this seems to be a de facto introduction thread so I'll add to it myself.

I'm in my 40s, I live in Europe (3rd country so far), and a lot of my life is currently taken up adjusting to a recent move, getting into hiking and trying to furnish a new flat!

I used to be a professional musician, though now that's just a hobby. I work in biopharma, trying to find better ways to help people primarily with neurodegenerative diseases. The rest of my background is in heavy IT and business transformation.

I've been on the net since before the web, and helped build some of the largest early ecommerce sites, after an early focus on AI and gaming. I've been through most of the big discussion sites from slashdot and livejournal and SA through to reddit and ello. I found I increasingly removed chatty / meme-heavy content from my feed and found there was little with more consideration, hence me having a look here. Look forward to some good discussions and a bit more thought.
