- <h1>About Me</h1>
- <p>
- Hi, I'm Jacob. I'm a current undergraduate computer science student at the
- University of Manitoba and infrastructure developer at the National
- Microbiology Lab. I'm planning on continuing on to do a master's degree at
- the U of M as well.
- </p>
- <p>
- My big interests outside of computers these days are tea and fountain
- pens. I also am really into literature, but haven't been able to find the
- time to read all that much as of late.
- </p>
- <p>
- In terms of computers, the hardware I'm most interested in is older video
- game consoles (which I want to eventually start some projects with) and
- microcontrollers. I like being able to fully understand how the hardware
- works which becomes a challenge for more complicated devices.
- </p>
- <p>
- In a similar vein, I like being able to understand the software that I use
- which is why I like using free (as in freedom) software. Emacs is my text
- editor of choice although I also use (neo)vim on remote machines (and at
- work due to some incompatibilities with the available version of Emacs and
- my configuration). My language of choice for personal projects is C. I
- enjoy the limited number of keywords in the language as it allows me to
- keep the full language inside of my head and allow me to focus on writing
- the algorithms, although Python is nice for rapid prototyping. Go is a
- nice middle-ground that I choose sometimes when I want faster code than
- Python or a stronger typing system. Another language that I enjoy is Rust,
- although I don't find myself writing it very often.
