Hey, my name is Michał Sapka. I am a computer geek from Kraków, Poland. I am into niche and old things, like anime, BSD, or Emacs. I am also very profoundly for internet privacy and freedom.

I earn my bread as a senior software engineer in a [SASS company](https://zendesk.com).

After work I am a husband and a father - the only reason I ever leave my home.

Here are a few cool links:
- [FreeBSD](https://freebsd.org/), an OS I am using
- [OpenBSD](https://openbsd.org/), an OS serving this site
- [Emacs](https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/), an editor (and much more) I use
- [Ruby](https://www.ruby-lang.org/), the language I work with daily
- [Sapka](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ushanka), a hat I have never worn but an named for
- [OpenBSD Amsterdam](https://openbsd.amsterdam), a VPS provider of OpenBSD VMs serving this site
- [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/), a static site generator powering this site

More cool links can be found under [links](/links).
