Welcome to Peacock Dreams

This is my blog, which I have decided to create to note down and capture random projects and work I have been doing.

It isn't supposed to be formal or complete.

What have I been doing recently?

I recently finished my part time online computer science MSc, and am waiting to hear back and see if I passed! 😅 You can see my dissertation project at [https://github.com/rej696/dissertation.git)].

Since finishing my Masters (and a bit during) I have been doing a number of things:

• Learning Perl for scripting 🐫
• Programming a CubeSat based game using Lua and Pico-8 <https://github.com/rej696/
• Learning ARM Cortex-A, CMake and C++ (for work)

What am I planning to do

I've got lots of ideas for projects (too many):

• Complete miro sameks modern embedded programming course, but with zig on the stm32 blackpill
• Write a forth for some micro
• Play around with the Daisy microcontroller, and learn Digital Signal Processing to write synthesisers
• I just got a RG35XXSP gameboy advance SP emulator thing, and want to get a terminal running on that for fun, and run my Pico8 games on it
• I've got a whole bunch of books to read on my todo list:
  • Learning Perl, Intermediate Perl, Programming Perl
  • A Tour of C++
  • Understanding Digital Signal Processing
  • Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs
  • Operating Systems: Three Easy Pieces
