Hey stranger! I am a Software Engineering student at the University of Waterloo. I am a big nerd of well architectured software, good documentation and consistent coding syntax. I'm a C/C++ guy, but also think that Python and C# are OK languages (need something to write scripts). I hate web technologies like Javascript, databases, etc. I think that the current market is over saturated with mobile and web "apps", and every other startup is just another greedy app in hopes that it will go viral. I LOVE open source software, and use Linux (Arch) whenever I can. My main interest is in game engine development as it covers a wide variety of concepts. I spend half my days playing games, usually Dota 2 (ruined my life). Sometimes I also play other well designed and immersive games like The Witcher, To The Moon, Valiant Hearts, Tomb Raider, Assassin's Creed, etc.
Umm, yeah...? I have been a big fan of Github markdown ever since I started using it to document my git repositories (again, big fan of well documented code). And ironically, I hate the idea of public blogs. In my opinion, it's almost always just over selling the blogger itself to clench the thirst for publicity. So why am I doing this? Well I used to use Google Keep notes for thinking out loud, writing journals, etc. And then whenever someone wanted to see all of those, I would have to share a link to each of the notes. And also there's no formatting at all in those notes, so here I am.
To be honest, not much. This is just my place for thinking out loud. Do NOT mistake this as one of those typical blogs. I am not going to exaggerate, oversell, or be politically correct but be straight up honest. Sometimes I will rant, and be extremely cynical. I will not backbite about other people, straightout backbiting is against my morale. I will be reflecting over my co-op experiences, thoughts about projects, new ideas, old ideas, other programming-related experiences, and sometimes irrelevant things. My goal is not to entertain anyone, so I don't care what someone wants if they choose to follow this.
So you are interested in following? Label me surprised, like actually. Comments are appreciated, and even feedback if it doesn't disagree with anything I've said above. Only read if you are interested, and I'm open to discussions.
