I spend most of my timewriting in-depth articles,making videos,and co-hosting theself-directed research podcast.

Before I did this, I worked at companies including itch.io, netlify, and fly.io.

In a previous life, I worked on cool stuff likean MP3 decoder in thebrowser (that was before emscripten), theitch.io desktop app (it used to work!), I even mademyown programming language, ooc way back when.

In my current life, Istill work on cool stuff, like series about:

• Reading files the hard way
• Building a Rust service with nix

And also videos like:

• Let's make an htop-like in your browser (with Rust)
• strace feels like magic — let's fix that (with Rust)
