About
Hi. My name is Erik Peterson.
I write things in
English
and
Ruby.
I live in Atlanta. I work at a late-stage medical device startup. We write software that saves lives. In the near future I'll be running my own software startup. You can read about this work and others in my Resume, or by looking at my .project file. If for some reason you'd like to contact me, just shoot me an email: .
This blog is written using a piece of blogging software that I made myself. It took a few hours. Disqus helped a lot. It seems kind of silly to write your own blogging platform, but I had a spare Saturday and wanted to learn how to use Haml and Sass. So I did it. And I'm glad. The entire thing is about 50 lines of code. I might release it, but, honestly, it isn't very useful if you're not me. I designed the site myself. Minimalism is just a cover for someone with no design skills. I love minimalism.
