That's a lovely work not only for the joy of seeing that has impact over millions of kids around my country but also because fighting with the ugly hacks of vendor drivers is fun! (A bit of masochism here :P)</p> <p>I mostly program in <em>javascript</em> with <em>emberjs</em> and do a bit of python, i experimented with a lot of languages (more than i can remember). My real passion is on learning the fundamentals of language/api/systems implementation, i think that they are the best way to understand the thing implemented (closures, promises, type inference, you name it). If you want a taste of what feels like i really suggest you to watch the <a href="https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-001-structure-and-interpretation-of-computer-programs-spring-2005/video-lectures/" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>SICP lectures</strong></a> they blew my mind and inspired me to start university, they had a new way of seeing every laguage construct.</p> <p>I'm currently starting <strong>Computer Science</strong> at the <a href="http://uba.ar" rel="noopener noreferrer">Universidad de Buenos Aires</a></p> <p><strong>Nice to meet you!</strong></p> <p><em>:wq!</em></p> introduction
