+I suppose I should introduce my selves in third person to distinguish my
+internet persona and "meatsona", even though I find it weird to write in third
+person.  The distinction is there, albeit somewhat blur.  I might have some
+other personae, but I don't feel comfortable disclosing them in public.

 ## Huy
 
-Huy is a struggling youth
+Huy is a [programmer][work] with several years of experience in web
+programming.  He is particularly interested in implementing and operating
+decentralized scalable networking systems; however, he lacks the resources or
+the needs to do that himself.
+However, this also means I [hate software][relevant-xkcd] more than most others
+around him.
+
+He loves sciences and mathematics.  Chemistry, in particular.  Why?  Perhaps
+it's rooted from alchemy lore and its proximity to fantasy genre.
+
+He is generally quite reserved compared to xarvos.  He rarely starts the
+conversation and does not respond well to small talks, but well, if you have
+some interesting topics, he's always up to long discussion.

+Generally, I am a curious person and always love to learn new things.  This

+I consider myself a creative person.  As in, I love creating things: drawing,
+fiction, software, languages.  Not that I am good at it, but it doesn't matter.
