Hello there, I'm a software engineer by trade, working as a backend engineer with #golang as of now.

When not at work, I like reading books on evolutionary biology, anthropology, science and technology and sometimes just a cozy comic book for that sweet feeling of nostalgia.

I self-host most of my services (of which this instance is one) and post my thoughts in my blog once in a while.

All in all, just trying to be a person in this world full of AI and bots :)

A quick and casual drive to my neighborhood revealed this beautiful #scenary after tropical rains.

This is the kind of view that I would want to wake up to.

Starting to learn to play chess in https://chess.com. It's fun!!

I don't prefer to read fiction novels! But 1984 by George Orwell got me hooked!

Lately I have been writing tests in golang at work. And, this time, I've finally got something nice to write about :)

I could really use a Bookclub to meet bibliophiles around my vicinity!
But everybody is just busy swiping their Instagram feed and books are biting the dust! 🙃

Good Morning!
Meditation time!

I want to someday be able to write code so good that I would want to eat it!

#RandomRamblings 😌

Damn! Never thought of that!

Binging on Numberphile videos!

I just hosted a #minetest server based off of #Mineclone2. Only a few mods have been added. If somebody wants to join in, you can DM me your usernames and I'll add them to whitelist :)

Thanks!

And that's how #Docker was born!

Mmhhmmm! 😌

Well, I'm not new to Mastodon. However, I find it helpful for new users to know me better with an intro, so here it is :)

Pinned to Profile.

I'm just going to link this article in here since it has proven to be extremely useful to me for backing up and restoring my gpg keys.
