Eduardo
Alarcón

Computer science engineer from Madrid. I like the low levels of the stack — C, CUDA, compilers, distributed systems — and I like building small tools that make student life easier.

I haven't yet found a branch of computer science I didn't like: from C++ and Go to AI and computer vision, through full-stack web and system administration.
