About
My name is Arcadiy Kantor. Since early 2009, arcadiy.org has been my website. Before that, this site lived at elepsis.org, but that domain has been given over to my stream of moments. Since the blogging revolution is now sufficiently passé for me to participate, this site now holds my thoughts on whatever comes to mind. It also serves as the home of my infrequent, miscellaneous random projects.
I am currently a Program Manager at Microsoft and live in Seattle. But here are some things in exciting bullet-point form.
Details
- Name: Arcadiy Kantor
- DOB: September 1985
- Occupation: Program Manager
- Things I like: Reminders of the smallness of the human world and the grandeur of the natural one. Traveling to places I’ve never been (and revisiting ones I have been to). Walking places so I actually experience my surroundings. And all sorts of various nerdery.
- Things I dislike: Ignorance, narrow-mindedness, and the unwillingness to consider other perspectives. Unchecked idealism or pessimism — and extremes in general. Laziness (though mostly in myself).

In Brief
My name is Arcadiy, and arcadiy.org is my website. Funny how that works.
I write about life, technology, my random side projects and whatever else strikes my fancy. I make no promises about the utility or entertainment of anything here. However, I would love to hear your thoughts on anything I mention.
In my day job I'm a Program Manager at Microsoft.

- I love it when people pay $20 for moderately-useful apps that are free on non-Mac platforms and are excited because they didn't pay $300. #
- @shrutishah there is no way to make a nicer URL to your SkyDrive today. We're aware this is a common request, though! #
- Either my English competence dropped while I was in Moldova or the latest version of Office 2010 has become way more of a grammar nazi. #
