I'm done with coding


y high school days, I was a huge server and networking person. My homelab was basically my identity, and not even a good one: consumer-level networking gear running Tomato and a then-7-year-old homebuilt desktop PC running FreeBSD.

Primarily due to “Big Data” experience at NYU CUSP, Microsoft placed me on the Viva Insights team. In fact, the disdain of Viva Insights was big enough to make me lose passion for coding and get into obsessive browsing and shopping because facing the music of working on a surveillance product would bother me even more. Sure, I won’t be able to buy shiny homelab equipment as often as I did in the past, but I at least have the guarantee I’m not working on an unethical product.
