What am I doing now?

Last updated: March 24, 2025

Big Updates

Say hello to my newborn son, Aiden! At two months, he's a healthy, happy baby and quite chill with new people. Other than lack of sleep, everything is going well with him so far. I'm on parental leave until May, and we're starting daycare soon.

Naturally, this means that the rest of this update will be shorter than usual. Not much else is going on in my life except for being a parent.

Hosting

In December, I hosted a New Year's Eve party. This will probably be the last major house party for a while. I already miss it. Leon and Luuk were visiting from Amsterdam and stayed over a couple of nights.

My parents came to help me out with Aiden for the first month. They joined me in Oregon for his birth, and we flew together back to NYC. I don't think I could've survived those first weeks if it weren't for them.

Hobbies

I released my first video game in over a decade! Called Rothexology (you are welcome to decide on the pronunciation), it's available for Windows, Mac, and Linux, and it's mostly just an attempt to learn the basics of programming a video game. Please let me know what you think if you try it out. As part of my learning process, I also wrote my first ever shader. Consider yourself blessed if you don't know what that is.

I added an RSS (technically an ATOM) feed to these updates for those who prefer to consume their updates this way.
