Voting neuron held by previous DFINITY Principal Engineer, John Wiegley

John Wiegley

Hello, my name is John Wiegley, and I’d like to request your vote on this known neuron proposal. The proposal I had submitted two weeks ago was only a motion proposal, which passed, so now I am submitting the correct proposal for inclusion in the NNS known neuron list.

Neuron ID: 12911334408382674412

# About Me

For a long while I’ve been a contributor to various open source projects and communities, including Emacs, Haskell, Ledger, C++, Common Lisp, Rust and Coq. You could say I’m a technology enthusiast, always looking to learn about new ideas and how they connect to real systems.

I worked at DFINITY from 2018-2022, exiting as Principal Engineer after nearly 4 years. While there, I worked on the execution engine, integration testing, devops infrastructure, transitioning from Haskell to Rust, the NNS, tokenomics, and various other aspects of the system. I knew the full stack fairly well, and had moved to the research side of the organization about a year before I left. This allowed me to work alongside most teams in the organization at one point or another.

# Voting

The neuron I’m proposing to name is the first neuron I staked, just a few weeks after initial launch. For most proposals I follow ICP Maximalist, but this is not how I always vote. I have a strong interest in seeing the Internet Computer become more decentralized and friendly to both its stakeholders and the public interest — and this is how I intend to vote.

# Disclaimer

Although I plan to always vote, whether manually or by following, I do not commit to any particular platform. I will vote my conscience and hold to what I, personally, think will serve the interests of the network and its users best.
