What I'm Doing Now

Nate Berkopec

I am currently living in Tokyo.

Gave a talk at RubyKaigi 2026

I recently travelled to Hakodate to give a talk about LLMs to the Rubyists gathered there. I wanted to talk about the [software factory](https://simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/7/software-factory/), an intriguing concept.

I've got a coach!

I'm now working with a professional cycling coach - Jesse Coyle from Nero!

Working on our retainer clients

Our retainer service has proved very popular over the last year.

I am:

• ...riding my bike and savoring these nice days of spring weather before it gets to be sweltering.
• ...playing Minecraft with my eldest daughter.
• ...trying to stay on top of maintaining Puma
