Cool stuff I hacked together:

• tw: a fast terminal file & directory navigator
• Supernova: a fast and beautiful open-source todo list
• 2048-cli: ASCII-powered 2048 on the CLI, made on an airplane trip because bored
• type.vuvincent.com: I had 2hrs to spare so I made a typeracing game
• sharded-kv: I built a sharded KV store that's partition-tolerant with consistency as part of my distsys class. Learned a ton about how hard it is and the pain with that uses Paxos

In my free time I enjoy:

• Podcasts (favs: Lenny's, Startup Therapy)
• Games (favs: Valorant, Lethal Company)

Here's a typeracer scorecard because why not, as I love typing to warm up my fingers everyday:
