# Well hello there!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I'm **Andrei Jiroh Halili** (he/they), an 18 year old Autistic[^7] Filipino student,
|
|
self-taught backend developer (in training), open-source contributor,
|
|
building [Recap Time Squad](https://recaptime.dev)[^1], and part-time writer for
|
|
[my personal blog](https://ajhalili2006.substack.com) and [The Bloody Hell PH](https://fromthebshq.substack.com)
|
|
based in Marilao, Bulacan, Philippines.
|
|
|
|
I'm passionate about Linux (especially shell scripting and all things
|
|
software packaging, currently Alpine Linux package maintainer for GitHub CLI), DevSecOps,
|
|
programming (not only in JavaScript/TypeScript, but I am also exploring Python, Go and other languages),
|
|
politics (_cough Philippine politics in lens of foreigners while disabled with [Honest Government Ads]
|
|
level of satire_) and internet health (things like fandom toxicity and cancel culture).
|
|
|
|
I am pretty searchable at [`@ajhalili2006`](./links.md) on [GitHub], [sourcehut], and
|
|
[across the fediverse] (or via [Threads](https://threads.net/@ajhalili2006)).
|
|
[Here's my contact details](./contact/index.md) if you need to contact me.

## More about me
|
|
|
|
Currently, I am part of the [Hack Club] community on their Slack workspace,
|
|
participating on [High Seas] and even attended their in-person game
|
|
jam [Counterspell]. I am the lead developer and maintainer for the [leeksbot] Slack app, an
|
|
companion to the `#hackclub-leeks` channel for everything been cooking behind the scenes at HQ.
|
|
|
|
Alongside being a Hack Clubber myself, I am a SABDFL (self-assigned benevolent dictator for life) or
|
|
open-source developer and maintainer (if you prefer to use that term instead) at [Recap Time Squad], mostly
|
|
working on [Community Lorebooks] documentation + subdomain service project, among other things.
|
|
|
|
Outside of being a Linux enthusiast and backend JavaScript dev myself, I am mostly seen lurking and joining lore discussions
|
|
over at [~mikedmoy's Discord server](https://go.andreijiroh.dev/discord/gildedguy)[^5]. I am not only followed
|
|
animators and furries (_please send help in the backrooms if I need to eyebleach on NSFW art_), but also
|
|
Minecrafters ([mostly the Hermits](https://hermitcraft.com)), (not just anime) roleplaying accounts, SubStack
|
|
writers and even fellow devs and disabled people (not just autistics).

## Why I code + use Linux?
|
|
|
|
My journey in coding started at [Glitch.com](https://glitch.com) in 2017-2018 to learn a bit of Node.js, while
|
|
my Linux journey started few months after that using VirtualBox. Some suggest that it started off being a ~~internet addict~~
|
|
(the words in strikethrough is a bit of a stigma in itself due to being one of my coping mechanisms while
|
|
autistic myself)[^6] chronically online Autist myself.
|
|
|
|
I code, usually in JavaScript for backend stuff, especially building APIs and learning all things databases
|
|
through Prisma, not only to learn how to build apps and tools, and learn all things Docker, but
|
|
also as a way to express myself and unload the baggage from my own traumas through code and
|
|
technical documentation. Although I am sort of semi-closeted and
|
|
introverted neurodivergent person, I try to document things in the public through
|
|
[daily notes on my wiki](https://go.andreijiroh.dev/daily-notes) and [my personal launchpad issue tracker]
|
|
and occasionally over at my socials.
|
|
|
|
I use Linux, since using Windows is always a nightmare for not only software development (yes, WSL exists
|
|
but why not go bare metal?) but as a regular user from performance standpoint but to learn the pain of being
|
|
a system administrator and DevOps engineer, especially in concepts such as Kubernetes infrastructure management,
|
|
software packaging, and anything related to `systemd` (I have not beef towards their creator and lead dev, it's
|
|
just happened to be learning why people think `systemd` sucks.).
|
|
|

[^7]: While I am fine with anyone using person-first language (`person with autism`), I prefer identity-first language since neurodivergence is always part of human life and genome.
