About Me

The UI operates on layers of abstraction created by the backend to hide the binary truth. On my journey into the binary world, I saw how ones and zeros became bits, which turned into bytes. Through encoding and math, these bytes are transformed into the media, colors, and sounds we experience on screens and speakers.

Pointers, referencing memory addresses, enabled dynamic memory allocation, allowing data to move, animate, and form efficient data structures. I learned about value and reference types through the heap and stack, and how pointers evolved into references, forming the foundation of OOP, with classes as reference-type structures, first seen in C.

This glimpse into the binary world reflects my special relationship with programming. To this day, I keep learning, always realizing how much more there is to know, feeling as if I know nothing. I am not a typical 9-to-5 developer — I need the office until 11 PM at least three times a week, immersing myself in new technologies.
