My friend and I were tasked with cleaning-up the robotics lab after a late night session. Rather than spending hours sorting the parts manually, we built a robot to do it for us (finishing the task in a few days instead of hours xD).

I knew how transformative technology is. It had been all around us. But actually leveraging it myself to automate a mundane task was when I truly grokked the power of technology.

Since then, I've built fast and beautiful web apps; efficient and powerful robots; slow and pointless(?) VMs; and learned to embrace the lightness of being a perpetual beginner.

From nerdy tech-talks about the latest JS framework to the etymology of Harry Potter spells, many things capture my interest.

I randomnly tried out writing and realized it's great for sketching out ideas. Most of what I write never leaves my computer, but things that I'm passionate about, find their way into my occasional posts here.
