About Me

+ 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. +

+ 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. +

+ 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. +

+ 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. +

jacob janzen's website

+ This website is designed to be as minimal as possible. It's written in + HTML with minimal CSS and JavaScript where needed. There is no graphic + design, no frameworks, and no bloat. It's currently hosted on GitHub + pages, but I intend to eventually move it over to a self-hosted server + when I get the hardware (this is years away). +

Projects

In Progress

+ urlg: + an old-style roguelike written in C with ncurses. Progress is slow as I + only work on this one when I'm feeling really inspired. +
+ Real Time Networking Project: implementing a CAN bus driver for the SAM-E51J20A microcontroller for + a project-based course at the University of Manitoba. +
+ IPN Project: + implementing an interplanetary network simulation using ns-3. +

Finished

+ Space Cowboy: a simple platforming game with some "interesting" physics written for + the 2022 University of Manitoba Computer Science Student Association + Game Jam. +
+ Writhing Mass of Flesh: a program that procedurally generates mildly disturbing looking GIFs. + Winner of the best code category for the University of Manitoba + DevClub's 2022 generative art challenge. +
