I am lazy and curious.

• Lazy because I'd rather spend time automating tasks rather than executing them manually. As soon as something becomes repetitive, I will look for a way to automate it. I can't help it.
• Curious because I love to learn about the world of computing. There is so much to discover that I will never see the end of it, and that's where the fun stems from.

It's really amazing how far computers have come. The more I learn about computers, the more I realize how little I know about them.

I enjoy learning new things, this is what keeps me going in life.

While I have a preference for writing code, I love to learn about everything that has to do with computers and how they work.

I have done a lot of web development because this has always been the easiest way for me to share what I create with others. Ultimately though, as long I find an idea, project, or technology interesting, I will certainly have fun working with it.

One of my most memorable projects was starting from scratch and making a fully working minimalistic CPU using logic gates (only virtually though, I have yet to build it for real). It was very different from web development, but that's precisely why I had so much fun working on it.

I am a privacy-focused guy and I like to be mindful of where my data goes. I spend a lot of time picking the tools and apps I want to use, and making sure they align with my values.

I strongly support the Open-source-software movement and apart from the few indie games I play, I rely primarily on FLOSS for my daily usage. I have listed some of the apps I use in the my-floss repository.

This naturally lead me to Linux, and I prefer to stay away from Windows and Microsoft when I can.

But, setting aside the data collection aspect, the reason I pick Linux over Windows is for the ability to customize my system exactly how I want it.

Check out my system config files if you are interested. Arch user btw.
