- 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. -

+- This website is designed to be as minimal as possible. It's written in - HTML with minimal CSS and JavaScript where needed. There are 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). -

-- The liquor is a yellowy-orange colour, with a thick, soupy texture. The - early steeps were very smooth, while later ones were steeps were drier - with a more tannic mouthfeel. It has a smoky, leather flavour that settles - into a malty sweetness. -
