hi there, i'm chrinovic!
computer programmer based in South Africa with an interest in computer systems and heterogeneous parallel computing. areas of focus include the linux kernel, performance engineering & instruction-level optimizations on x86_64 microarchitectures and HPC CPU/GPU compute kernels. i sometimes also explore hardware virtualization and LLVM compiler backends.
I am a student member of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), with memberships in the Special Interest Groups on High Performance Computing (SIGHPC), Microarchitecture (SIGMICRO), and Computer Architecture (SIGARCH).
outside of technical work, i enjoy reading manga, studying true crime investigations and taking long walks.
if you would like to support me in purchasing a proper computer,HPC hardware(GPU/TPU),micro-controllers,etc. please feel free to make a donation below. :)
