I play the guitar and am a starter on the piano. I enjoy cooking, Chess, reading, experimenting, watching movies, listening to music, and visiting places around the world.
The best way to contact me is by sending email to muks at mukund dot org. I use a program called SpamAssassin to filter out spam from my email automatically. So if I don’t appear to reply to your message, it could be that your message got filtered out by mistake and I didn’t get it.
I no longer use PGP to sign email. But in case you want to send me confidential messages, you can still use my PGP key. I use it mostly to sign software and Git tags.
