_ Is this all? I like to keep things simple but, no, I follow other people and organizations, too—just not by feed.

^* Currently under review. As mentioned in the past, this is part of my process to avoid information overkill. Review reasons range from verifying new sources to confirming matches with my priorities to keeping an eye on what may be dead.

^† You probably wonder, what’s up with this one! I’ve been following the Haiti Times since a couple of years into the Haiti gang war, something pretty much no one is reporting about in the media around me. (Speaking of which, did you know that Kenya is heading the international mission to help Haiti? Exactly.) This is likely to be a temporary thing, but I’ve actually learned a lot about Haiti already!

About Me

I’m Jens (long: Jens Oliver Meiert), and I’m an engineering lead, guerrilla philosopher, and indie publisher. I’ve worked as a technical lead and engineering manager at various companies (e.g., Google); I’m an active web and tool developer (code optimization, digital defense), a contributor to web standards (like HTML, CSS, WCAG), and a book author (O’Reilly, Frontend Dogma).

I love trying things—in web development and engineering management, but also in politics and philosophy, where I hold to one idea in particular: that we can only be well if we take good care of everyone. Here on meiert.com I talk about some of my perspectives and experiences. (Interpret charitably but be critical—and share feedback and advice that makes my work better.)
