About

I don’t like to mix together my worklife with my rest-of-life but I also prefer not to divide life up into neat categories like work and the rest-of-life. I will hereby hyperlink to undo what this blog originally separated from.

Aside from pundit.ca, my other sites include phydeau.org (some of my writing and creative pursuits) and unkindness-of-ravens.org (an experimental music ensemble). I write the conmem.ca blog timeline to conserve public memory for people to review and criticize (especially with respect to the conservative party’s scandalous actions). I also occasionally write another blog, cuothe.com, as an experiment in developing a curmudgeonly fictional personality by adressing the regular goings-on in the enterprise software industry.

I’m employed as the Director of Knowledge Services by an enterprise software selection, analysis, and decision support firm called Technology Evaluation Centers (TEC). That means I’m responsible for coordinating research analyst, writing/editorial, translation, and knowledge management teams, as well as developing specialized knowledge base systems. We research information technology and the issues in its use (I have a particular interest in F/LOSS, free/libre and open source software). TEC is not responsible for this blog, though I sometimes comment on what I do there. The things I write here are my views and do not represent TEC.

I live in Montréal, Québec, Canada and graduated with a degree in philosophy from the University of California at Berkeley. LinkedIn Profile and Twitter jctec (or sometimes phy and identi.ca) and Google profile.
