hobby: linux

I'm a Linux enthusiast! Linux is an operating system, quite like MacOS or Windows. It's a piece of free and open source software which, from a practical level, means that it doesn't take a lot of personal data and send it to some large company to make money off me - that's exactly what Microsoft does with Windows. Linux keeps my privacy, but the real reason I love it is the customisation - I can make my computer feel and do exactly what what I want! I can use Linux almost exclusively with just my keyboard - making me more productive for all the 'work' I do >:)

hobby: typing

Fuelled by my love of computers, and the lockdown causing computers to play an even greater role in our day to day lives, I learned how to touch type. Since then, my words per minute went from a sustained 45 to now a sustained 155. I still spend a little too much time on typing websites, but the clicks of the keyboard are just too satisfying. My favourites are monkeytype and Keymash.

hobby: cooking

[eating] food has always been my passion, so I decided to make some! Baking is where my biggest interest lies, but I also do some savoury dishes. The look on someone's face as they are served your dish is a gratifying experience. The science, history, and culture is preserved in every dish we make, and understanding it just makes me want to cook it more!

hobby: competitive programing

Ahhhh the pressure, the intensity is why I love competitive programming so much! Competitive programming is writing code in a contest to solve some artificial problems - it's typically a mix of maths, but mainly logic. I love the stress whilst I'm writing code and having to rack my brain for something useful. My language of choice is Python (though I should probably learn C++ at some point!).

hobby: technology

I follow as much news related to tech as I have time for! I love the hardware, the software, smartphones, laptops, headphones - everything! It's fascinating how these products are created and marketed, and that's why I love tech so much. It's the foundation of society, and understanding it is key as humanity progresses further into the digital realm.

hobby: hot chocolate

Need I say anything more?
