Welcome to my personal space.
I write about various topics I'm interested about, often related to programming.
I recently encountered a puzzling issue: zig build worked perfectly, but make build failed with "Permission denied". What followed was an interesting debugging session that uncovered a quirky interaction between GNU Make's PATH search and directory structures.
This article documents the investigation process and some debugging techniques that proved useful along the way.
I've been exploring the m8 Dirtywave tracker for a few months now, and it's been a fascinating experience. If you're not familiar with it, the m8 is a portable music sequencer built on the Teensy platform that combines a minimal 8-button interface with a powerful tabular workflow. What makes it special isn't just its portability or its sound capabilities, but how the hardware and interface work together to create an experience that's simultaneously constrained and liberating.
The world of software development often revolves around open source and free software licenses, known for their transparency and relative simplicity. However, what happens when we pivot towards proprietary software licenses? The terrain becomes a bit more challenging, with a multitude of complexities that need thoughtful consideration.
Still a work in progress. Coming soon!
