Hey, sorry for not being active on social media recently. Just been busy with IRL stuff, that's all.

I'll most likely come back after my student exchange semester ends. It's really been a quite rough few weeks for me trying to adapt to a new environment.

You Give REST a Bad Name

A parody of 'You Give Love a Bad Name' - about hypermedia APIs. No, really.

I wrote an op-ed on the world-class STEM research ecosystem in the United States, and how this ecosystem is now under attack on multiple fronts by the current administration: https://newsletter.ofthebrave.org/p/im-an-award-winning-mathematician
I’m an award-winning mathematician. Trump just cut my funding.

The “Mozart of Math” tried to stay out of politics. Then it came for his research.

I dislike self-deprecating humour. While it can appear humble, it often masks self-hatred. Over time, it fosters complacency and a mindset of being inadequate, rather than encouraging action and growth.
got a notification that the GameBub
(an open-hardware FPGA gameboy color+advance clone/devkit announced back in february) crowdsupply campaign just went live - and oh look, a couple of my projects made a cameo appearance in the file listing shown in the updated trailer

Just finished Dan Abramov's Just JavaScript course after procrastinating on it for a while. Awesome course, highly recommended.
So, I was skimming through the JavaScript edition of SICP, and I found this monstrosity. This is not idiomatic JavaScript in any way, and seems to be a direct translation from the original Scheme which used S-expressions. Either way, this code snippet made me drop the JS version entirely, might read up the Scheme edition at another time.

Absolute banger of a video.
