About Me

Howdy! My name is Olive, and this is my website! I host my projects here (and the blog posts I write about them). I'm interested in low-level computing, firmware, OS development, FPGAs, cryptography, web development, and analog synthesiser circuits. When not tinkering with 'puters, I like to crochet, make jewellery, bird, learn languages, listen to music, and cook.

Technology

Besides the follies which cause me to reinstall Arch Linux every few months, I do a pretty good job ordering 'puters around. Here is some of the software I've written:

• arcane – Keyboard firmware with backlighting
• randpup – Linux kernel module ngram generator
• rd – Linux privilege elevator designed for systems with few users
• swaydwm – dwm-style window management emulation for sway

My dream job would be writing firmware in C or designing programs for FPGA. (Military-industrial complex? It's actually quite simple...)

Music

My favourite genres of music are grunge, punk, hyperpop, breakcore, and digital hardcore. Moshing at small concerts in packed venues is really fun, and I'm glad I get to experience such a vibrant local music scene where I live.

My favourite bands/artists are Nirvana, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, Destroy Boys, Femtanyl, and Machine Girl. If you have better music taste than me, please inform me how to improve mine by sending me an email.
