Programmer, here to chew bubble gum and do #gamedev for fun. And as you can see, I'm not chewing any gum.

At the moment playing around with #Odin and #SDL3 making game engines in my free time. I also dislike YT devlogs, but you can always try to surprise me.

I rant a lot about gamedev-related things in-between posts about my project, you have been warned.

ai slop bores me.

Oliver is a CSE Prof teaching databases and data structures. He enjoys HEMA, cooking, photography, home automation, and coding random stuff. He built a notebook for collaborative, reproducible data science called Vizier (https://vizierdb.info) and now works on scaling datalog on commodity hardware (https://git.odin.cse.buffalo.edu/Norn/Draupnir)

Expect posts here to be mostly about #draupnir, #vizier, bad puns, #photo graphy, and/or travel logs.

I'm an aspiring web developer and a former chemist. What I bring from chemistry to software development is a systematic approach to problem-solving and the perseverance to not give up easily.

I'm currently learning full-stack JavaScript with The Odin Project and Frontend Mentor. As a side project, I'm building my personal website with Astro.
