Petr Siegl

Software Engineer
Freelance

This is my corner of the Internet. It's a place of learning for me. I'm wrong quite often; my goal is to be less so. Hopefully others can learn from my mistakes and some tidbits of wisdom I share here.

Beware reader!

  • I have horrible sense of humor and will unleash it here at full force.
  • This blog will be evolving over time - to what end I have no clue.
  • Again - this is learning platform for me. I want to practice my writing and teaching skills.
  • This is an adult blog - I have no problem with any topic and may write about anything interesting to me in the future.

The man behind the curtain is Petr Siegl. I'm software developer from Prague. I don't centre on one area of development. I've done mostly fullstack previously, but currently improving my devops skills. Next year I plan to shift towards infosec and machine learning.

My hobbies include martial arts, gaming, reading and learning. I'm aspiring stoic and rationalist. My focus concerns mainly practical philosophy - principles I find useful to apply in my daily life.

Fun
