The Sun God Times

Hello, world! I'm Danny Bimma

Who or What am I?

A life long tech-enthusiast, and self-taught indie-developer who enjoys systems and back-end/network programming. I'm also a chronic-otaku who loves to write a lot of prose on both tech and Japanese fiction. To put it succinctly, or as one of my friends has christened me, I am the "Technomancer Pirate Captain!" The man who will become King of the Programmers.

What I Do and Who I Do It For

A hobbyist-programmer, and tech-blogger/technical writer who compiles code and writes prose everyday after completing 8-12 hours of an unrelated day job.

Current Project/Goal

I'm building an anime and manga tracking application in ANSI-C. This project shall serve to expand my skills and experience writing C programs, and will eventually evolve into a full mobile application using React Native.

My ultimate goal is be a valuable tech writer for readers inside or interested in the industry worldwide, and become a cracked indie-developer along the way (if at all possible).

What I Can Do

I currently specialise in building whimsically-named, mostly useless applications for fun. This strange process/practice serves to teach and reinforce the essential concepts of programming robust systems and applications in the modern world:

Developer Tools: Terminal utilities, parsers, text editors, and interpreters.
Backend Development: Server-side logic, APIs, and database schema design.
Systems Programming: Embedded systems, low-level optimisations, and hardware interfacing.

My Philosophy

I believe in writing code that is not only functional but also maintainable, readable, efficient, and fun to engage with. Whether it's a simple base-64 encoder or something as complex as a feature-rich terminal-based browser, I aspire to create software that will stand the test of time.

"A large fraction of the flaws in software development are due to programmers not fully understanding all the possible states their code may execute in." - John Carmack

When I'm Not Squashing Bugs

Besides coding, the only other things I can truly get lost in are watching anime and reading manga/fiction. My favourite series in the entire world is One Piece, and if you have any love for Luffy at all please find a way to connect with me—we shall have lots to discuss.
