                       Embedded
                            Software
                                Developer


This diary contains my notes and memories about my work as
embedded software developer.

I've always been interested in operating systems, low level
development and networking.  After a bachelor thesis in robotics,
and a specialization in embedded systems, I decided against all
odds to wrap up uni with a master thesis in distributed systems.
The choice was motivated by the job opportunity that came with
it, more than by a genuine interest for the subject.

After a few years of dissatisfaction I found the guts to change
the situation.  Then I worked as backend developer, until the
pervasive use of containers and the cloud-induced complexity wore
off my interest for this line of work.

In mid 2021 I attained a job as embedded developer, effectively
coming back to my origins, only to find out how much I'll have to
learn in order to catch up.
