eternia VS name-needed

https://www.catpea.com/ custom code exploring github editable data, that is then processed into a local .cache folder and made into an express (JS) website which I then spider to convert into a static version.

UI uses bootstrap with minor modifications.

Compilation is handeled via https://github.com/catpea/eternia which I can't replace with hugo, as I want to have a notion of books, playlists, maybe javascript apps in some articles. I need a custom static site generator.

I am learning how to Narrate audiobooks while reading my own poetry, and learning how to write out philosophical ideas in the process.

I also convert the audio into simple videos on youtube, and recently uploaded a 70+ hour behemoth to the Internet Archive (3.6GB) https://archive.org/details/@catpea-com

I recommend making an audio recording of your writings (I use audacity and a mic with a pop/plosive filer) even if just for your family for 50 or a 100 years from now.

I have no views, I have no time to argue with people which is why I keep away from social media, I only have time make a stranger laugh (I do digital portraits on reddit and occasionally compose a weird song on youtube).

As to the content it self, I am just exploring random subjects, that capture my own curiosity. It is nothing special, it will take me a couple more decades to grow into a writer. This is my start.

Currently I am babbling about digital painting, previously 3D Printing, Music Composition, Circuit Design, Programming, Teaching, Dancing (I dance to Blanco Brown https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7U6AoZ27yE at the gym every day I can't help it), Bicycling, Camping, and sending people on the Appalachian trail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPSvdKTEZug

I host with vercel, as a hobby project. If you want to grab all the audio, use the archive.org or youtube. The archive.org link has everything one file, and youtube has a playlist you can hop around.

I am not a fan of ads, I understand YouTube maybe running their own ads on videos I did not monetize. If I recorded a video of my readings, and did video editing, I would regret putting all that time into videos that now would have ads between them.

I like being a narrator, not a fan of videos, decades from now I'll write an AudioBook, in which I complain about High School.

For my long term side project I just dump ideas into a barely organised backlog.md [^1]. After finishing a feature or taking a few months away, I normally dive back in by browsing this and choosing the next milestone.

It's worked well for a couple of years, and helps me keep the long term goals in mind.

It uses a custom static site generator because I needed to procrastinate somehow before starting the first post... Now it's nicely stable and punishing new posts is quick and easy

Location: Tallinn, Estonia (UK citizen intending to move there)

Remote: Willing to work partly remote but I require a sponsored visa to work in Estonia

Willing to relocate: Yes, to Tallinn :^)

Technologies: Rust, C, Python preferably, but C++ too. I enjoy low-level work focused on performance; see my toy OS, JVM implementation and game engine on my github profile.

I've written some pretty low-level OpenGL bindings in Rust, because the existing solutions are either too high level or over the top complexity wise.

At the time I only had experience with the OpenGL C api and didn't want to learn a totally different Rust abstraction or mix C/C++ libraries into a pure Rust project.

I've been alternating between two long term Rust projects, which seems to work in keeping the motivation up for both!

A Dwarf Fortress-like game (and engine): https://github.com/DomWilliams0/name-needed

A x64 operating system: https://github.com/DomWilliams0/DomeOS

A Dwarf Fortress-like game (and engine) in Rust: https://github.com/DomWilliams0/name-needed

Ambitious to be sure, but after a year and a half I'm still consistently working on it, and still enjoying it!
