Now

This is a now page and here is what I’m doing in my life right now.
I’m in the second of two years of parental leave and most of my time is spent taking care of the little one or getting the ever-growing list of household todos under control.
It’s year nine working as a full-stack web developer at alugha.
Books
My books-to-read pile is always way too big. 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
This is the first book in the First Law series and I plan to read all of them, if the books are 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.
The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien
The legendary classic. Many years ago I stopped reading midway during the second volume. Now I started anew and plan to finish it.
Projects
Dev projects I’m currently building:
- a Markdown word processor in Odin using SDL3
- a flashcard terminal app in Golang using FSRS spaced-repetition and plaintext Markdown-based storage
Languages I’m currently learning:
- Odin
- French
