If the world was ending …
HEY! It’s a good song, ok, trust… Anyways, I’m Ben (it says Benjamin up there but I go by Ben). Uh, I’m an incoming freshman at UT Austin for Computer Science though I probably won’t update this so I’ll most likely be a freshman when you’re reading this.
I chose Computer Science because I really love math (nerd) and because I like being able to make something that I imagine into something real and tangible through programming. I mean, so many different fields with a lot of math are available for exploration via code which is very fun!
A few examples that I’ve worked stuffs on before and/or currently are phylogenetics (like evolutionary history), phage engineering (like core genes), and signal acquisition (like weird math complex numbers). Idk, for me personally, I believe CS is the best discipline for learning about different fields. If, for some apparent reason (unless you’re a recruiter or something) you’d like to see my resume or curriculum vitæ, click here.
Some stuff about me
I really like chess. I really like piano. I really like creative writing. Yep, oh, and the programming stuff, ig. Most of the posts here will probably either be about those four things (or it’ll be me crashing out for some stupid reason of which there are many).
Some cool stuff that I did at some point (+ my old personal site which for some reason people think is ugly)
