Hello 😃,

I'm a software engineer by profession and a writer by vocation.

My interests lie in computer science (hence the career choice) and philosophy (hence everything else).

<aside> 👉 I write, code and run a podcast.

Besides trying to overcome the personal struggles that we all face in ordinary life, philosophically, I’m currently studying and thinking about cognitive science, embodied AI, the philosophy of technology, German idealism, neorationalism and the metaphysical foundations of science. Socio-politically, I’m exploring left-accelerationism, communism and how to use technology to move beyond neoliberal capitalism towards more egalitarian societies. I also spend an eccentric amount of time thinking about love, suffering and, perhaps unsurprisingly, God. 😅
