Hey, I'm Milo. I'm an applications and systems developer, with professional experience in C, C++, and Python. At my current job, I maintain interfaces to scientific simulation software, bindings, unit tests, and continuous integration solutions. Outside of the professional sphere, I'm proficient in Rust, and am familiar with Kotlin, Java, Lua, R, and HTML. I've worked with Linux, macOS, and various BSDs.

This is my website, where I share my projects and things that I've done.

Personal Projects

I've moved over to SourceHut, and don't use this account much anymore. Mirrors are maintainted for projects I care more about. This is not a full list of all my personal projects, only the ones I would like to showcase here.

• Koi (GitHub Mirror) - A compiler and full toolchain, written in C, featuring a custom, experimental backend architecture.

• Ook (GitHub Mirror) - An investigative object-oriented kernel, written in C++.

• Kojiki (GitHub Mirror) - A tool for converting GNU Makefiles to Ninja build files for faster iterative builds, written in C.

• Sprite (GitHub Mirror) - A revival and modernization of the Sprite operating system originally developed at UC Berkeley.

Less Notable Projects

• fxsdump - Utility to dump Firefox Memory Core files to JSON.
• face2ppm - Utility to convert FaceSave files into the PPM format.
• no-orm-sqlite-rust - Example (for a friend) of using SQLite, without an ORM, with Rust.
