Lovely website! The various themes are an especially nice touch. I found your writing about giving up on software engineering very relatable. In particular, your wish for a comfortably simple life, your sentiments regarding greatness, and the apparent contradiction between the two. Several other posts on your site resonated with me as well. I wish you all the luck with whatever you end up doing!

Thank you so much! I will have updates on all this soon (hopefully good ones). It's touching but also sad how many people have mentioned that post being particularly relatable. I hope it's not too pessimistic; obviously software isn't for me but I do hope that great people will continue to push the field forward!
Also I'm really looking forward to seeing your site get fleshed out. Your insightful comments and page design are already inspiring.
Thank you for the kind words! I look forward to your updates as well. And, for what it's worth, the post didn't really come off as all that pessimistic to me. I found it reassuring.
