what I'm doing now.

Last updated April 2026 · inspired by nownownow.com

Working on

  • Underwater object detection pipeline at Kelpie Robotics — YOLOv8 + COLMAP vision stack
  • Genomic survival prediction research at Mer Lab — Python RandomForest on TCGA ovarian cancer data
  • React Native talent marketplace at The Acquist — Supabase auth, PostgreSQL schema design
  • React Native maternal health app restoration for rural Benin (volunteer, L'Abbraccio ODV)

Learning

  • Operating systems internals — working through the xv6 labs
  • Linear algebra more seriously — 3Blue1Brown → Gilbert Strang
  • Getting deeper into distributed systems concepts

Reading

  • The Making of the Atomic Bomb — Richard Rhodes
  • Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman — Richard Feynman

Thinking about

  • Writing up the Challenger disaster post — the organisational failure angle is more interesting than the engineering one
  • How to build systems that stay reliable under real-world conditions, not just benchmarks
