My name is Michael David Daub. For brevity, call me Mike.
Welcome to my personal website, where I share information about myself, my work, and my interests. I prefer to publish it here rather than on social media platforms.
If you are curious about my professional background, you may peruse my resume.
Various photos are available for your viewing pleasure. (Yes, the famous naked South Pole photo is included.)
Cheers!

I am a simple man. I prefer a simple website.
As such, I created and maintain this website using
HTML and
CSS.
You may find a smidgen of MathML or
SVG or
plain-vanilla JavaScript here and there.
But there are no web frameworks.
No content management systems.
No server-side programming languages.
No tracking.
No cookies.
No nonsense.
Just simple, clean, static web pages,
hosted on a web server
located in the good old United States of America.
