`web-platform-tests` embodies the old-school hacker ethic of everyone making softare better for everyone. Engineers making cool stuff for people to use—not to lock them into their proprietary software.

Got to watch Interstellar in IMAX last night. My new goal in life is to live long enough to see it re-release again.
Built another android app over the weekend as a part of our club's internal hackathon. Might release this in the org.
In other news, got feedback from the patch-hub maintainer! Going to focus on that project this week. Let's see how close I can get it to v1.
Ran my first 10K without stopping in an hour and fiffteen! Thankfully my knees didn't start hurting till later in the day, I had a placement eligibility test in the morning right after the run.
Going to be getting back up to date with our club infrastructure today. I have a blog on device drivers (in C and in Rust) coming up, should be out some time next week.
Just got back from FOSSHack today, definitely one of the best hackathon projects we've made so far. 36 hour hackathons feel so much better than 24 hour ones, can take breaks more frequently and rest better. Too bad I was sick for most of it though. Anyhow, checkout our project here.
Quick side quest this weekend: we're making an android app w/ Kotlin for FOSSHACK. Frontend on mobile is so much nicer than CSS. Still not big on it though.
Still haven't heard back from patch-hub's maintainer. Hopefully will get a reply soon so I can understand their vision and send in more meaningful PRs. If I don't, expect more OS/Kernel stuff this week.
Been working on a lot of different stuff lately: device drivers, an android app and multiple Rust apps. Hectic week.
Found this pretty cool newsletter called "This week in Rust." Would recommend.
Compiling the kernel with max cpu perf. set to 75% because xiaomi does not let me control it's fan on linux. Might need to write a wmi driver.
Came across this neat sub-project of kworkflow called patch-hub; gonna be contributing to that instead in the next few days.
