Using Python on the GPU
I recently had a slow python script that seemed like a good workload to accelerate on the GPU. This post goes over some of my thoughts regarding that experience!
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.

Generalizing Geocentric orbit visualizations
Lately, I’ve been watching Orb: On the Movements of the Earth, an anime about astronomers researching heliocentric theories while evading religious persecution. I wanted to explore how geocentric orbits looked, and also view what maps of space might have looked like from other planets.
Cleaning out some old tabs
On my phone I’ve got waay to many open tabs because I use my tabs as a “read later” list. Well, later is now, so it’s time to read and summarize every open tab I have.

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
clangandCypher - Some example usecases are:
- Prevent functions that assume locks are held from being called without a lock
- Prevent functions using collective
MPIoperations from being called during another collective operation - Prevent secure functions from being called from insecure contexts
- Static analysis tool for C/C++ to reject invalid callgraphs, powered by
- 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.
