<h1>Tait Hoyem</h1>
<p>I have three goals in my software development career:</p>
<ol>
<li>Strong adherence to the <a href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/taoup/html/ch01s06.html">UNIX principles</a> of software design.</li>
<li>Security, privacy, and anonymity of the internet.</li>
<li>Accessibility of technology to the visually impaired.</li>
</ol>
<p>Some of my projects reflect these goals;
others are just fun along the way.
I have all of my code projects hosted on <a href="https://github.com/TTWNO">my Github</a>.</p>
