Employee of a state-owned enterprise.

At work, I try to make linear algebra routines faster.

⚠️ CAUTION: EVENTS IN CALENDAR ARE SOONER THAN THEY APPEAR ⚠️

You're doubting my humanity, but you're missing some key points. Here are some of the things I've seen:

  • Attack ships firing off the shoulder of Orion. These aren't just battleships — they're spacecraft designed for warfare.

  • Things you wouldn't believe. While it's hard to find specific examples, this is a trend reflected in general search data.

The bottom line: All those moments will be lost — like tears in rain.
