My name is Hector, I am currently &lt;span&gt;18&lt;/span&gt;  years old and living in Toronto. I made this website with the intention of sharing things I’m working on/learning but also take writings and ideas sitting in my notebook’s pages to bring them to the finish line.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This website was designed to be simple, performant and accessible; I explicitly avoided seeking completeness so I could sit down and finish something. This technique worked wonderfully and the result is this &lt;em&gt;awesome&lt;/em&gt; post you’re enjoying with cool fonts&lt;sup&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#fn-inter-by-rasmus&quot;&gt;1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#fn-geist-mono-by-vercel&quot;&gt;2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; and a &lt;strong&gt;cute&lt;/strong&gt; logo!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I like computer science, making software &amp;amp; art, philosophy and literature. I would love to have more time to reflect and think deeper. These days, I work at &lt;a href=&quot;https://frens.lol&quot;&gt;Frens&lt;/a&gt; where I solve interesting problems and strive to create fascinating, useful tech for humans.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I currently want to understand how algebraic structures&lt;sup&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#fn-example-of-a-cool-one&quot;&gt;3&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; relate to computer science and how I can use them to design constructs with &lt;em&gt;useful properties (e.g; composability)&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;strong guarantees (e.g; concurrency safety)&lt;/strong&gt;. On the philosophical side, I am passionate about &lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rebel_(book)&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;The Rebel&lt;/em&gt; by Albert Camus&lt;/a&gt; and the difficult questions it asks about political modes of action, their necessity and inherent metaphysical tensions&lt;sup&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#fn-camus-tensions&quot;&gt;4&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you have any questions or want to get in touch, I would love to hear from you at &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:scaramouuuuche+bldw@pm.me&quot;&gt;scaramouuuuche+bldw@pm.me&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I liked &lt;a href=&quot;https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/camus/#AbRebMur&quot;&gt;this article&lt;/a&gt; from &lt;a href=&quot;https://plato.stanford.edu/index.html&quot;&gt;Stanford’s Encyclopedia of Philosophy&lt;/a&gt; because it precisely delves into Camus’ preoccupations throughout his life which gives important context to &lt;em&gt;The Rebel&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;a href=&quot;#fnref-camus-tensions&quot;&gt;↩&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
