Hi! I'm Aki, a Software Engineer
I deal mainly with low-level and systems programming on Unix and Unix-like platforms with a bit of embedded and HDL thrown in the mix. The tools of choice being chiefly C++, and Python for the majority of my work, but I also use C, Rust, and the assembly language of choice for the platform as well. In HDL land for FPGAs and the like I mainly use Torii, but I can also handle Verilog/SystemVerilog if I must.
I also like to mess around with hardware design, my largest hardware project is Squishy, a SCSI multi-tool for interacting with SCSI devices from a modern system, A lot of engineering time and effort has gone into it, and I even did a small lightning talk about it for !!Con
On the side I tend to read a lot of manga and do some hardware and software reverse engineering for fun. I started to keep a lab notebook about things with less pressure on making fully polished blog posts, so there will be fun musings in there more often than formal posts.
I'm also a VTuber who streams a bunch of stuff like software and hardware development, reverse engineering, and anything that catches my interest~ I'm part of the nullptr::live VTuber group who has a lot of other cool members that also stream technical stuff!
