About

Hi, I'm Wes Mason (aka 1stvamp).

Software engineer, open source enthusiast, occasional speaker. I've been putting things on the internet since 1999.

This site is home to posts I wrote between 2009 and 2014, plus a preserved archive of short "thoughts" from 2002–2008 — over 500 pieces in total. I'm interested in Python, DevOps, distributed systems, and whatever rabbit hole I've fallen into this week.
