Assembly language — a voice that’s still shouting in my head.

In this post, I talk about how discovering assembly language as a teenager completely changed the way I think about code. Even though I only wrote one simple assembly program in my life, understanding how the CPU actually works gave me a new perspective on loops, variables, memory, and performance. Assembly became a voice in my head—a technical conscience that reminds me to write cleaner, smarter code. I might never use it in real projects, but its influence is always with me.

Why did I leave Google behind? (Degooglize)

In this post, I explain why I decided to degooglize my life. Because I care about my privacy and want real ownership of my data, I gradually replaced Google services with my own self-hosted tools like Nextcloud, Vaultwarden, and MailWizz, all running on a Raspberry Pi 5. The process was time-consuming and not always as convenient as Google, but now I feel much more in control and far more independent. I also encourage anyone who wants to do the same to start small and take it step by step.
