Welcome to my website! My topics of interest are distributed systems,
storage/databases, compilers, and programming languages. I also dabble in
generative art from time to time. You can find my blog here.

argparsh
has too much overhead for some usecases - in this post, I will examine why and use Rust
to build a better solution.
Argument parsing in the shell doesn’t have to suck, so I made it not suck.
For a long time, I’ve wanted to cycle 100mi in a single ride, and this past
weekend, I finally did. Here’s a small write-up on my experience.
see all my posts here
projects
- MonkeyWrench
- Generative AI powered tool to help use browser devtools
- Lowers the barrier of entry to using the JS console to automate tasks or
debug scripts
- Watch a demo of the prototype here
- rainbow
- Static analysis tool for C/C++ to reject invalid callgraphs, powered by
clang
and Cypher
- Some example usecases are:
- Prevent functions that assume locks are held from being called without a lock
- Prevent functions using collective
MPI
operations from being called during another collective operation
- Prevent secure functions from being called from insecure contexts
- sPyCy
- A python implementation of graph database with an openCypher frontend for
testing openCypher tools, or for embedding openCypher in other projects.
- Try the in-browser demo at the link above! Or try a demo of sPyCy being
used to implement a webscraper here!
- video-synth
- A synthesizer for visual effects! Chain together various filters and
transformations and build temporal functions to animate them. The UI is
definitely a work in progress and is hard to use.
