SYNOPSIS
abdeltwab [--build systems] [--prefer source] [--stay curious]
DESCRIPTION
I write C++ for a living and small tools to solve my own problems.
GNU/Linux shaped my interest in open, inspectable software. I'm drawn to systems programming, cryptography, performance, and algorithmic challenges.
This site is where I share my projects, thoughts, experiences, and interests beyond code.
HISTORY
- FIRST PRINCIPLEPrefer understanding a system to merely operating it.
- THE TURNLinux and free software turned the computer from an appliance into something inspectable and alterable.
- CURRENTBuilding software, maintaining small tools, and writing down what was difficult enough to remember.
INTERESTS
- systems
- C++, Linux, performance, and software close to the machine.
- trust
- Cryptography, blockchain, decentralization, privacy, and the design of verifiable systems.
- problems
- Competitive programming when a compact, difficult puzzle is the right kind of diversion.
- outside code
- This part will grow through stories and recommendations rather than a manufactured list of personality traits.
