Brief Intro

Hi! My name is Alex, and I maintain uutils/coreutils. I live in San Jose, CA (i.e. in Silicon Valley), so I am currently doing my best to survive with the insane cost of living.

Projects

At the moment I am working on:

  • uutils/coreutils
  • an HTTP(S) server/reverse proxy built on hyper
  • ... and a couple more projects that I don't want to talk about yet

How will sponsoring me help?

  • I need the money to pay for servers, food, and (perhaps less importantly) subscriptions to Tresorit, FFXIV, etc.
  • Sponsoring me will encourage me to devote more time to my various projects
  • I need more coffee

1 sponsor has funded Arcterus’s work.

@Arcterus

This would cover my monthly server costs and a couple of my subscriptions, which would really be a great help.
