Introduction

Hello, I’m BRTZ.

I’m a computer science student from Italy. My main interests are functional programming, decentralized computing and communication, high performance computing, and free software in general.

What I’m currently involved in

• member of Codeberg e.V. and intend to contribute
• contributor for AerynOS, mostly in packaging
• am doing early work on various projects such as an XMPP library+client

but I’m mostly just studying and experimenting.

Where is my code

My code is mostly on Codeberg. I tend to keep my repos private until they’re somewhat mature.
I have a Github account, but I only use it for contributions, as I dislike the platform.

Copyright and LLMs

My code tends to be copyleft. The AGPL is great!
I don’t use LLMs as they would be a net negative on my learning process and on the long term quality of my projects, and that’s besides the other concerns (environmental, psychological etc.).

This blog is nice

Thanks! I made it using Hakyll, a static site generator based on Haskell and Pandoc.
The CSS is PicoCSS, I appreciate it for being classless and fairly lightweight (~70KB).
There are also automatically generated RSS/Atom feeds.
The site’s source is available on Codeberg.
