You can officially finger my server by finger -l [email protected].

I have been playing alot of Indie games. Recently I finished

Cloud Climber - A game about end of humanity. You play as a character(probably the last person on earth) looking for resources on sky high wood towers.
Socrated Jones: Pro Philosopher - A detective style game where you debate in your afterlife with prominent philosophers about Morality for getting back to earth.

and a couple more indie puzzles like Frame of mind, Shadow Burglar. I got these list from the curated list Gamers with very less time. I’ve played quite a few of the listed titles.

I finished playing this cute short game Dr Langeskov, the tiger and the terribly cursed emrald. Its about game development. You help the developer setup scenes for the game that you intended to play. Very meta, cute, recommended. The Stanley Parable is along the same lines. I’ve played it before but I am trying to find new endings in this playthrough. I like the kinds of game I can be away for a month and jump back in without losing the story.

Hello from my git home server, I truncated this repo and migrated it to my home server so it acts as intermediary between me and GitHub.

I came across Restart Frame for debugging and I am totally going to overuse it. I learnt about it when I was looking for reverse debugging for JS. I want to try live programming with debugging.

I have an interactive repl setup where I send snippets to repl directly from vscode. I am using Send to Terminal+

I started reading Beginning x64 Assembly Programming by Joe Van Hoey. Its been fun playing around with gdb and getting to know the low level stuff. Prime example syscalls, stack pointers, base pointers. It fills missing info as a programmer about the stack, heap and more things. I am looking forward to SIMD. My goal out of this would be to have a clearer understanding of the hardware and hopefully this’ll help me reason about things for optimization.
