I am John Gossman, an independent technologist living in Seattle. Formerly I worked on Azure at Microsoft, and on open source, including a stint on the board of the Linux Foundation. This blog is about cloud computing, technology and the city which is many ways the home of the cloud: famously cloudy Seattle.

I blog about ethics and life advice here: https://howtolivetherestofyourlife.wordpress.com/

I talk about general philosophy and weird ideas here: https://whatisthequestion.wordpress.com/

I amuse myself with fiction here: https://mythistorima903254643.wordpress.com/
