• 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, F#, TS/JS with React / Next.js / Remix, Python, and Java, 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. Increasingly I'm finding that I prefer Rust's features, so we'll see how long this stays at the top of the list for.
  • 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). There are a lot of very elegant ways to program that only work functionally.
  • TypeScript and React I've used in a professional capacity, and I enjoy the simplicity of them. Frameworks like Next and Remix make the process much more enjoyable and handle boilerplate for you.
  • Python I find incredibly useful for quick scripting, prototyping, and other automations. It's also very much a go-to for quick data analysis, although I've heard that F# is pretty good for it too.
  • 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.

• I use Powershell a lot for automating simple processes or creating basic command-line "applications". The fact that it's basically just a .NET interpreter makes it extremely easy to use but quite powerful
• I primarily use Arch Linux on my personal machines, although I'm also pretty good with Debian/Ubuntu and RHEL
• I also do quite a bit of work using Selenium IDE and Selenium WebDriver, which is great for testing websites, automating repetitive tasks, and, website-dependent, can also be used for load testing

• Currently I'm working on a remake of 2003's hottest railroad company simulation game - Railroad Tycoon 3 - using Rust and Bevy
• 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 3300K 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
