I am Martin.

I wanted a website so I built one...

Some stuff that interests me or made me smile. The scripts I write. Elasticsearch, SQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, sqlite, bash scripts, Python, GCP, Spark... OK, I’m a geek - an Entrprenerd. Only good is good enough. “I’ll format it later” - no you won’t - find a new job.
