Last update: 8/2/2024 ![[rydgel_now.webp]] # What I am currently doing This page is inspired by the [NowNowNow](https://nownownow.com/about) movement, it’s a way to tell readers what I am currently busy with. Let’s hope I’ll keep it up-to-date. ## Work I’m currently working at [Iconosquare](https://www.iconosquare.com), as a lead backend developer. Mainly working on the API to serve our web and mobile apps. The office is located in Limoges, France. ## Readings ### Neuromancer **Author:** William Gibson > [!summary] > In this dystopian future, multinational corporations hold overwhelming power, and artificial intelligence has reached sentience. ==Case== is contacted by the enigmatic ==Armitage==, who offers to restore his health in return for his hacking expertise. Joined by a team of eccentric characters, including ==Molly Millions==, a street samurai with cybernetic enhancements, Case sets out on a perilous mission. The father of the cyberpunk genre[^1], I read it a long time ago but I felt like reading the trilogy back again, this time with a new French edition. A true classic, that defined a whole sub-culture. ### Real World OCaml Functional Programming for the Masses **Authors:** Anil Madhavpeddy & Yaron Minsky **Edition:** Second edition > [!summary] > This fast-moving tutorial introduces you to ==OCaml==, an industrial-strength programming language designed for expressiveness, safety, and speed. Through the book’s many examples, you’ll quickly learn how OCaml stands out as a tool for writing fast, succinct, and readable systems code using functional programming. This book was recommending to me as learning support for OCaml. It’s really good and it’s _huge_. Plenty of content and examples, so far I’m liking it. You can also [read it online](https://dev.realworldocaml.org/toc.html) for free. ## Video Games It’s going to take a while, but I’d like to finish [Elden Ring DLC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elden_Ring) and [Trails Through Daybreak](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Legend_of_Heroes:_Trails_Through_Daybreak). See you in six months… [^1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyberpunk
