Hello, and welcome to Null Patch. If you're viewing this site, it can only mean one of three things:

  1. You got linked here from one of our posts on another site.
  2. You saw it in our username on a site using domain names as usernames.
  3. You've seen this in our email address on a CV if we've been brave enough to swap it out.

This site is our little home away from other places for things that can't necessarily go there.
For more information on who we are and what this blog is, visit the about section.
