I'm Sindre. I actually spent more time on open source when I did work. Some people cook or bicycle as a hobby. I code. I'm totally addicted to making things on the computer. I used to spend work lunches coding on open source projects. I lived in a remote place (Lillehammer, Norway) with few people around and not much happening, so I had a lot of free time after work. It definitely is tough working up energy to code after doing it all day at work, but it's different. Open source coding is the most exciting thing I've ever done. I'm so glad I accidentally got into doing open source. It changed my life.

  Hi Sindre. You have me blocked on GitHub and I'm not sure why. As far as I'm aware I've never interacted with you directly. I tried to submit a bug fix to one of your projects, but I wasn't allowed to even fork it. I also tried emailing you but I got no response. I hope that if I said something offensive in some other context that gave you cause to block me, you'll give me another chance. -andrewrk https://github.com/andrewrk/ https://github.com/andrewrk/

    Just looked at your GitHub profile and you're not blocked. Couldn't find any email from you either. Don't see why I would block you. Can't remember us interacting before.

      Well, that's good news. I found the email and forwarded it to you again for your reference, but it sounds like whatever happened is fixed. Cheers!

  Thanks for clearing it up Sindre—wasn't sure when you got into OSS/when you travel or move around. I also would spend less time on the computer if I was in Southeast Asia :-)
