In my free time, I love to learn and experiment with new technologies and paradigms.
I believe software engineering is a constant battle of design decisions with trade-offs at every step of the process. I strive to equip myself with the tools and knowledge that help make these decisions more informed. Sometimes the shiny new thing can be dangerous when working with a small team but there may lessons to learn from it.
Below is an assorted collection of links that have impacted me. It's a public catalogue that I hope others may find useful.
