• Sìobhaltas 0: Pre-Planning 08 May 2022
  Àite Domhainn -> Sìobhaltas. A new plan for the strategy game, a new direction and (most importantly, of course) a new name!
• Names are important. 27 Apr 2021
  Refactoring a codebase of ~16k SLOC just to change a name; is it worth it?
• BounceEngine 27 Apr 2021
  A physics engine simulating a bunch of balls bouncing about turned into a game engine.
• Into the Apple System Management Controller 17 Jul 2020
  Apple's SMC is the interface between the sensors on a mac and the OS, however this API is private and not publicly documented. Here's my journey into the various forum posts and other efforts which have uncovered the secrets of the SMC.
• Àite Domhainn part 2: time for a diet 11 Jul 2020
  I think I was biting off a bit too much. Time to trim down the scope a wee bit!
• Àite Domhainn: a strategy game for the patient 11 May 2020
  Àite is a game I've been working on the last few weeks, thought I'd share some ramblings about the process so far.
• Event Driven Simulation 11 Apr 2020
  Event driven molecular dynamic simulation doesn't time step in the mormal way: it jumps from collision to collision. This allows for real hard sphere interaction. In this post I discuss building a simple ballistic event driven simulation package.
• A Neural Network so simple its SINNfull 22 Feb 2020
  In this post I look at the basics of Neural Networks, and build (a very simple) one from scratch.
• Python's stretchy integers. 09 Jan 2020
  One of the awesome things about Python are the indefinitely sized numbers (Long and Decimal) which allow arbitrary precision in calculation. In this post I explore Python's Long implementation, and I write a simple "Big Integer" in C++.
• crisp - A(nother) LISP Interpreter. Part 3: C++, objects, polymorphism, and exceptions 03 Dec 2019
  Taking a wee meta-tangent by looking at the language we're using for this.
• crisp - A(nother) LISP Interpreter. Part 1: Introduction and Tokenisation 21 Nov 2019
  Writing a lisp interpreter in C
