From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hi, I'm Derek Newhall. I'm a graduate of the University of Massachusetts at Amherst who double majored in Software Project Design and Management and Philosophy.
My contributions to Wikipedia are mainly related to fixing typos, redirects, and other minor things. I used to very involved with the articles relating to Fascism and other early-20th century nationalist and dictatorial movements (I was the primary maintainer of the Fascism portal), but the amount of bickering, blatant bias (from people on both sides), resulting revert-wars, and wasted time eventually got to me and I no longer contribute heavily. This is primarily due to this URL being the first entry from any listing of a web search for my name: rexcurry.net/wikipedia-derek-newhall-amherst-fascism-dnewhall.html
My interests include computer programming, politics, economics, music, and fencing. I currently work as a computer programmer using the Common Lisp programming language, which is probably hands-down my favorite programming language. I do also, however, have a soft-spot in my heart for Tcl, C, and Objective-C. Politically, I identify as a classical liberal and typically vote for the Libertarian Party. I listen to primarily Gothic rock, Industrial music, and Metal but will listen to anything that strikes my fancy.
