interests:
- information architecture: how to make solutions to complex problems easier to understand and build
- mental models and metacognition: how to use the brain well, how to think efficiently, how to transfer thoughts and ideas to other humans, and how to transfer skills to other humans
currently working on:
- learning programming language design and implementation: working through crafting interpreters and building a programming language from scratch1
- building a protocol (language) for defining interfaces between networked applications (really just a language for defining RPC over HTTP and websockets, but one that isn't tied to a specific language (e.g. trpc) and doesn't force a myriad of other opinions like transport and serialization methods on you (e.g. grpc))
- learning purescript
other interests:
- practical philosophy
- PC games (Dota 2, Factorio ...)
Fun fact: Some day in the far future, someone will have the very last memory of you for the very last time...
1 Not quite from scratch, but the examples in the book are slightly more object-oriented and implemented in Java, whereas my implementation is in Rust and a bit more functional. Not very efficient yet though 😅
