Hello and welcome to Coding Beyond. I’m Nate, a software engineer and current CS master’s student.

For the last few years I’ve been debating on what the focus of this site would be, at first I thought maybe technical tutorials…

However with that comes the dreaded tutorial hell, and I believe that learning is best done hands on or in a way that encourages exploration rather than memorizing and copying off a screen. To wit this site won’t have any sort of tutorials and will assume a fundamental understanding of computer science. I will provide some explanation here and there of why I went with a paradigm or why I used a circular buffer here and there, or what it means to save cpu cycles.

This site will mainly serve as a blog to document the areas of computer science that I find interesting, mainly that of low level programming and systems engineering. Maybe on the rare occassion I’ll write about the hotest new JS framework out there but this site’s primary focus will be the former. So expect alot of posts about linux, kernel modules, device driver development, C programming, and so forth.
