About

If you haven't figured it out by the domain name, my name is Greg Cochard. I'm a software engineer, open source advocate^[1], and technologist, living in Southern California. I am the creator of VanillaScript^[2], hibp-downloader, a Raspberry Pi Pico W based Air Quality Monitor Arduino Sketch, and a main contributor for Alohomora.

You can view my Github profile, my StackOverflow profile, my Twitter feed, and my LinkedIn profile if you feel so inclined.

DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed on this website/blog/thingy are, and always will be, my own. I will never write anything I don't agree with, and -- perhaps more importantly, I will never put words in the mouths of others (be they my employer^[3], or anyone else). If someone wants to agree with what I say, it is their decision to do so.
