The name is a 0 and a 1.
Sero comes from semillero, the Spanish word for a seedbed: the place where things are started and grown. It also reads as zero. The domain, .uno, is one. Put them together and the name is binary: 0 and 1, the two digits every piece of software is built from.
That is the idea behind everything published here. Start from a seed. Build in the open. Keep it simple enough that anyone can check it. The falling 0s and 1s in the background are the same thought made visible, and the 01 badge is the mark.
Communities first
Technology should serve communities before anything else. I am Sero. I began with little and built from the things no one can take: knowledge, skill, and experience. I use them to make tools and do public-records research for the communities I am part of. It is volunteer work. This site is where I publish it under one name, so the work answers to a person, not an alias.
One standard
Everything here follows the same rule I would hold anyone to: show the sources, mark how confident each claim is, and correct mistakes in the open. Lawful, disclosed activity is reported as fact, never as proof of wrongdoing. People are identified carefully, and ordinary private individuals are kept in aggregate.

The full name
Written in full, it is Sero Uno: the seedbed and the one, the 0 and the 1. Short, it is just Sero. Either way, the work is meant to start something small and useful, and to grow it where it helps.
