Hi! I’m @eschnou
I’m a software engineer based in Liège, Belgium. I work as a freelance consultant helping software development teams improve their craft, through better organization, tighter processes and mastery of AI tools.
I’m an open-source contributor, spending time with decentralized social networks, the #indieweb, libre AI, blockchain, and any topic where technology gets back in the hand of builders instead of corporate silos.
I also enjoy writing in natural language essays. I ramble about philosophy, society, technology and quantum physics.
