Jordan Bancino

Hello, I'm Jordan Bancino and this is my personal website. Here is just a little bit about who I am, in order of importance to me.

  • Christian: I am a follower of Jesus first and foremost. I wish to honor the one true God and make His name known in everything that I do, in a manner that is civil, logical, and respectful, yet uncompromising. I believe the Bible is God's word and that it is inerrant and authoritative for all. I strive to follow it as it is written, not reading external meaning into it or taking it out of context. I am currently studying Biblical Greek so that I can read the New Testament in its original language to understand it even better.

    Εἴτε οὖν ἐσθίετε εἴτε πίνετε εἴτε τι ποιεῖτε, πάντα εἰς δόξαν θεοῦ ποιεῖτε.

    (Whether you eat [or] whether you drink [or] whatever you do, do all for the glory of God)

    — 1 Corinthians 10:31

  • Husband: I thoroughly enjoy spending time with my wife. Together, we laugh, study God's word, and spend time outside.

  • Computer Scientist: I am a programmer, digital minimalist, online privacy advocate, and UNIX expert. I know many programming languages, but I primarily do my work in C, SQL, PHP, and shell scripting. I enjoy creating software to solve complex problems. I also strive to maintain a minimal digital presence as much as possible, because I believe that privacy is incredibly important, and the internet has brought about an unprecedented attack on our privacy. Previously an OpenBSD and FreeBSD user, I now run Alpine Linux on all of my computer hardware. I am proficient in Linux and other UNIX-like operating systems, and much prefer them over Windows.

  • Cellist: I am currently the principal cellist of my university's symphony orchestra, and I have studied cello as a music minor. I am especially fond of the Bach Cello Suites, which I am studying and hope to one day produce clean and accurate digital typesettings of, complete with bowings and fingerings. I also hope to perform and possibly even record these works at some point.
