      <h1>Open Invitation</h1>
      <p>
        This page was inspired by
        <a href="https://hillelwayne.com/open-invite/">a person whose blog I
        enjoy</a>!
      </p>
      <p>
        I’m excited to learn and share knowledge. This is an open invitation for
        you to e-mail me whenever you want to talk software, research, our
        industry, or life in general. Please reach out! Some of the things I’m
        equipped to talk about:
      </p>
      <ul>
        <li>
          <b>Managing teams.</b> I like to work with people and still do
          technical work; if you want to find out how to do that and what some
          of my methods are, I’d love to share! And if you have any input of
          your own, I really want to hear it!
        </li>
        <li>
          <b>Carp.</b> Carp is a statically compiled Lisp with a fun type
          system and a borrow checker. I maintain the standard library and I
          like to talk about it a lot!
        </li>
        <li>
          <b>Macros.</b> One of my hobbies is reimplementing language
          features through macros, and it’s taught me a lot about how they work
          and how to write good macros with APIs that feel <em>fun</em>!
        </li>
        <li>
          <b>Tooling.</b> The more time I spend in software, the more I think
          about the inadequacy of most of the tools we build to make our own
          jobs easier. I’d like to work on that, and talking about it is a great
          first step!
        </li>
      </ul>
      <p>
        As for the format, I love getting e-mail or <a href="https://calendly.com/veit-veitheller/coffee-chat">coffee chats</a>.
        It might take me a moment to reply, but I try to get back to you as quickly
        as possible! I also love meeting people, so if you’re coming to Erlangen,
        let’s have a cup of coffee, a beer, or a snack!
      </p>
