Internet connectivity via phone tethering was fantastic, at least the Howrah to NJP stretch that I travelled."

The book, along with other amazing talks & posts on Zig, is encouraging me to think differently, from first principles, when it comes to systems. The last such happened almost a decade ago with Haskell. Rust never required me to think in this way. Maybe coz of all the fantastic abstractions in Rust. I might write more about these someday in the future."

My goal is to revamp my writing, both long-form & micro, across platforms to be based on ATProto protocols (like this site is driven by leaflet.pub, a lexicon & appview for writing & publishing) & use the Unison cloud, along with its fantastic streaming & cloud libraries, to create a bunch of synchronisation tools within the larger ATProto ecosystem. I will surely have more to write about in the coming weeks."
