David Beckingsale

I'm a computer scientist that finds it hard to write things about himself. Academically, I'm interested mainly in high-performance computing.

Most of my programming experience is in Java, but I can use C, C#, Ruby, Haskell and Racket with varying degrees of proficiency. I also know HTML, CSS, and enough jQuery to get by.

Other things I enjoy are cooking (and eating), coffee, reading, and wasting time on numerous "lifehacks", my favourite being learning to shave with an old-fashioned safety razor.

Github is where you want to go to find code I have written.

latteMPI is a pure Java implementation of a subset of the MPI Standard, if you know what that is then please check it out.

My xmonad-config is also on Github. It has two nice colorschemes, one of which is based on zenburn, as well as some nifty dvorak keybindings I use.

Other stuff lurking around is my dotfiles repo, and the Tumblr theme I use.

I'm blogging, tumbling, tweeting, bookmarking, coding, listening to music, and I'm on linkedin.
