I used to be a frontend engineer, so I still spend a ton of time messing with JavaScript—TypeScript, to be exact—for my research stuff and just for fun projects. Atwood's Law: “Any application that can be written in JavaScript, will eventually be written in JavaScript.”

This site is running on Notion and Vercel. I've added some extra code to nextjs-notion-starter-kit to make it a better fit for academic stuff. You can find my version here. ~~Just a heads up, I haven't gotten around to writing the README for my changes yet… (Bad habit!)~~

My motto is ‘可以，但没必要’, it means ‘Sure, but why though?’ It's like my way of asking 'Do we really need to do it?'

I love penguins, that’s why the icon of this page is a penguin.

I'm really into cars. Even though poverty prevents me from exotics, I still get plenty of drive time with my beater and home simulators. Plus, I handle oil changes and whatever maintenance I can do on my own without needing a garage.
