I'm moving to Codeberg! Let's build software there instead of training LLMs to benefit Microsoft: https://codeberg.org/a-plucky-squirrel

Hiya! 👋

Like a diary from a forgotten past, computer code is embedded with stories of a program's making, its purpose, its assumptions, and more

  • I believe that inclusion in software development is incredibly important so that we can better reflect the complexity of reality
  • I'm a t(h)inkerer by nature, currently working as a backend developer.
  • Before the advent of AI, I used to work in the VFX/CG industry helping folks deliver pretty pixels
  • My background is a mixed bag of Humanities and Computer Science that finds its peak in Computational Arts. Computer code to me it's much more than just instructions for machines.
  • Rust, Python and a good shell (zsh, bash, fish..) are my dearest friends right now. In the past I also hung out with C++/JS/Java (in decreasing order of love)
  • If you're into OpenFrameworks, Cinder, Processing or Threejs then let's get in touch!
  • Physical Computing is where the real fun is!
  • Things I did:
