For the last couple of months most of my projects have revolved around low-level C programming, with the most prominent one being Lander , my URL shortener. During this time I’ve developed a method for structuring my repositories in a way that works for me and my development style. In this post, I’ll be detailing my approach! If you prefer looking at the structure directly, the basic…
This weekend’s the first time in a couple of weeks that I’ve had a bit of breathing space. I’ve started to realize that I’ve been feeling a bit off. I’ve had a busy schedule this semester, lots of people to catch up with, and more uni work than I expected. Yesterday was the first climax of this, with two deadlines and a group presentation due. It became so busy I had…
Over the years, I’ve invested in a (in my opinion) pretty good audio setup that I use very frequently (especially during the winter). I’m quite fond of it, so I’d like to show it off! And perhaps, someone out there might find the information interesting :) Hardware The hardware consists of four main parts. I use a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 both as a USB-connected DAC and an…
Ever since I started middle school, I’ve been a bit of a chubby kid. I was never into sports & honestly I just like food. The fact that my main hobby, computer stuff, requires me to sit down all the time doesn’t help my case either. My health was never really a big concern for me, as I generally felt pretty good physically. A few months ago however, I finally found the courage to go…
Music has a profound effect on me. It dictates my mood, helps me process emotions or keeps me focused. It motivates me when I’m running & helps me when I’m down. And of course, I’m listening to some great music while writing this post. I felt like writing, mostly because I was feeling a bit like shit. It calms me down, helps me put things in order. The idea to write about music…
While I’m trying to find time to work on Vieter (college is killing me right now), I figured I could describe my current workflow for developing Vieter, and in general, V! I’ve always been a rather minimal developer, preferring simplicity & lightweight programs over lots of smart IDE features. While this mentality doesn’t work for all languages, V’s simplicity allows me to…
Or at least, that’s how I experience it. Let me explain. I have a lot of sideprojects. Most would say too many (I’m inclined to agree). I often start these projects because I feel like it, without a particular purpose or useful goal in mind. Programming is just something that I really enjoy, so I tend to create ideas out of thin air just because I want to write something, anything.…
This blog is about a week old now. I’m still figuring out what kind of content I’d like to post, or what kind of writing style I have. What I have figured out however, is my workflow. Thanks to my backend powered by Axum I have pretty much full creative control over the internal workings of my site. This gave me the freedom to implement a system that I think works very well.…
Yesterday, some friends & I met to “watch” the Tour of Flanders (gonna have to trust Google Translate on this one). Mind the quotes, because none of us really know anything about cycling ;p One of us just lived close to where the tour ended, so we used this as an excuse to organize a party at their place! It was really fun standing in a big crowd of bystanders while the two…
After months of delaying, I’ve finally set up my own little site! Initially I had this grand idea in mind with lots of overengineering, but eventually I was able to overcome my stubbornness and just use Hugo . I hope to post something semi-regularly here (I might even try the 100 Days To Offload challenge if I feel like it). I haven’t really decided on what type of content I wish to…
