Hello world!
A few years ago, I had a blog called Algorithmist, which means someone who knows algorithms. I wrote there every once and a while about the interesting computer science-related problems which I got to know from the courses I had in my undergraduate studies. Eventually, I ran out of simple problems to write about and quit blogging. Yesterday while I was browsing the web randomly, I ended up with an old post by Joel Spolsky where he mentioned Netscape’s downfall. I wondered why he made an example with a product that has been dead for quite a while. Then I looked up the date of publishing the post, and it went back to 2000. The fact that I was reading about an old experience which is still true and how everything changes within two decades hit me. I started reading his old posts, which could not have been more enjoyable! I guess I like to see the thoughts of a person over time. So here I am. I haven’t decided what to write about yet, but I want to write about interesting topics in computer science and coding, which is a big part of my life.
