with further aspirations for the future.

Arch Linux user since 2021. I spend most of my time doing mathematics, and programming in Python.

Here are a few projects I'm proud of:

Status: Active (2026 - present)

I'm reviving my mathematics blog as I have a backlog of intuition and opinions to share.

I wish I had unlimited time to turn them all into Manim videos.

Status: Active (2024/2026 - present)

I have discovered the correct way to extend UTF-8 indefinitely.

I have made a one-page specification and reference implementation available.

Status: Active (2024 - present)

High quality mathematics videos, animated using Manim. Occasional as they take a lot of time to produce.

Status: Active (2023 - present)

Author of PEP 786 (draft).

Status: Complete (2023)

Binary Oscillator Computing and Threshold Logic.

Graded 89/100!

Status: Active (2021 - present)

A superseding fork of Google's adbsync repository.

Status: Cancelled (2021)

Proof of concept of cryptographically signing Minecraft maparts for use as NFTs on a blockchain. Cancelled as it felt too grubby.

Status: Retired (2021)

A full-stack standalone copy of r/place for 2b2t players. I used Flask and SQLite on the backend, and ReactJS on the frontend.

Status: Complete (2021)

Rebane2001 created MapartCraft, a JavaScript Minecraft mapart creation tool. I ported it to ReactJS and added an online ThreeJS 3D preview.
