I use GitHub to store all my terrible mistakes.

Languages

  • My preferred language at the moment is Rust, which I'm still exploring the use cases of. So far it's proving to be a very adequate replacement for C and C++, although I need more practice to fully grasp the semantics of it and how it works internally.
  • My other languages are C++, C, Python, TS/JS with React, Java, and F#, in order of experience.
    • The C and C++ go somewhat hand-in-hand (although they're definitely not the same language). I use C++ where I can because RAII is wonderful for memory management, as well as the fact that the STL exists, but sometimes C is unavoidable. I'm a better C++ programmer than a C programmer.
    • TypeScript and React I've used in a professional capacity, and I enjoy the simplicity of them.
    • Python I find incredibly useful for quick scripting, prototyping, and other automations
    • Java is fine. Just fine. It works, the ecosystem is very mature, and it's hard to mess up other than in the performance department.
    • F# I use profesionally, and is generally very nice to use once you get your head around thinking functionally (learning Rust first helped with that transition)

Other Cool Technologies

  • I use Powershell a lot for automating simple processes or creating basic command-line "applications". The fact that it's basically just a C# interpreter makes it extremely easy to use but quite powerful
  • I'm currently having a look into Docker and Containerisation, as I want to learn more about microservices and how they can be leveraged in practical contexts. Kubernetes will probably be where I go next if this research looks promising
  • I primarily use Arch Linux on my personal machines, although I'm also pretty good with Debian/Ubuntu and RHEL

Extra Facts

  • Currently I'm working on an MMORPG in Rust as a learning exercise, which may at some point become a public repository
  • My favourite colour changes far too often for me to reliably put it here, but if I had to hazard a guess it would be ~#4f424f.
  • My favourite colour of paint is Valspar's Sleepy Kitten in Matte with 4000K lighting, which I'd strongly recommend getting the Premium Walls & Ceilings version of because you'll get away with only two coats as opposed to the Classic which can take more than three.

I have a website too, although I don't do much with it
