About me

The heck is this?

You came here on your own will. This is my little corner on the internet, and it was made with simplicity in mind. This site was the main reason why I picked this approach. Sure, maybe people, including you, will say this is laziness in practice, but I don't mind. It is particularly enough for me.

Well, then who are you?

I'm Rin. People know me under that name. Some people call me Akira instead, I don't mind. My internet history starts back in 2019, pretty late compared to what this platform is mainly about.

I'm a hobbyist backend developer, a language undergraduate and a designer. I'm also a system security enthusiast.

Okay, what do you do?

So as you have seen the header, I experiment with stuff. I do plenty of things that I think would mess my life up with bare metal systems. That's also why I have some heck of experiences.

I also make designs, write some code and do some other stuff. I'm a pretty good multitasker, I think. I rarely admit something of myself like that.

What do you use for your development?

I use my brain. Every person needs one.

Tools, I mainly code with VSC. I also am learning Neovim to streamline my workflow, as I usually have to stare at the terminal.

I'm a JavaScript main. Python didn't interest me enough back then. I knew about weird JavaScript behaviors, but I lived along. I also do write some C++, if that interests you. My main web language is HTML, sounds honestly surprising.

You mentioned designing, so what do you use for that?

I mostly use Photoshop for my works. I got the CS6 build from one of the machines I broke. Thanks a lot for the service.

I like Photopea as a tool, too. It's a good alternative to Photoshop, and it's free.

Any personal stuff to share?

Yes.

I do stupid things pretty often. I play a single game on a laptop. I play a single game on a phone. And I watch very little anime.

That single game on laptop is osu!. On phone it's Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel.

I like Serial Experiments Lain. I have watched Angel Beats! and Girls' Last Tour. And I have read Shimeji Simulation - pretty good stuff, check them out.

You might have interested me. Where can I find you?
