Honza Pokorný

A personal blog


I'm a Czech-born Reformed Presbyterian, working as a senior software engineer at Red Hat, currently living in Nova Scotia, Canada. You will often hear me talking about coffee, photography, old books, Emacs, functional programming, weird keyboards, text interfaces, learning human languages, jazz, and many other hipster things...

You can subscribe to my RSS Feed or have a look at what books I'm reading.

You can find me in many of the usual places like Twitter, GitHub, and some of my projects are hosted on Smithy.
