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.

In this post, I continue implementing a parser on the GPU and take steps to hide the latency of
transferring data to the GPU. Additionally, I explore Rust’s code generation mechanisms to
simplify running compute shaders.
GPUs are good at massively parallel operations. Parsing is often parallelizable,
can parsers be written on the GPU?
argparsh has too much overhead for some usecases - in this post, I will examine why and use Rust
to build a better solution.

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.
