About

I am currently working as a Junior Software Engineer at Korbyt.

I think that coffee, unsweetened milk tea, lifting, Linux, dynamic window managers, functional programming, and good lights are all cool.

What I Use

Software

Distro - NixOS

I switched to Linux in late 2020 as I found that Windows got in my way with its poor Window management and myriad other annoyances. If memory serves, I used MX Linux, Debian, Artix, and Arch before I settled on what I hope to use for a while, NixOS.

Hardware

Laptop

I had an HP Envy x360 13" throughout my undergrad, until it broke in my final semester, at which point I purchased a used 6th generation ThinkPad X1 Carbon. I haven’t done any PC gaming in quite a while, so it suits my needs well. What matters to me in a laptop is support for my USB-C hub, low weight, proper size, and decent manufacturing.
