Now

This is a now page and here is what I’m doing in my life right now.

I’m working as a senior web developer at alugha doing mostly server-side Typescript and Go, with some React frontend work every so often.

Books

My books-to-read pile keeps growing too fast. Here are the books I’m currently reading.

Effective Go

This comes in website format, not as a classical book. I’m reading it to both deepen and refresh my Golang knowledge. I also use it to extract key information into a digital flashcard system I built myself. More on that further below.

The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie

It’s the first book in the First Law series and I plan to read all of them, if the books turn out to be as good as they say. I’m also a bit weary of the classical high-fantasy genre and I very much look forward to the grimdark aspect this book is praised for.

Shroud by Adrian Tchaikovsky

I read this as part of an online SciFi/Fantasy book club assignment. So far I’ve read two of Tchaikovsky’s Children of Time novels, which I enjoyed a lot. This will be a bit more on the horror side and I am quite interested.

Measuring the World by Daniel Kehlmann

Another assignment for my local book club. It’s a German historical fiction novel following the lives of Alexander von Humboldt and Carl Friedrich Gauss. Not my favourite genre, unfortunately.
