Axcelott

Hi, I’m Robin (he/him), also known as axcelott online. I’m a 16-year-old teenager from the Netherlands. This is my little corner of the vast internet.

About me

I like anything *NIX or BSD, I’m a sucker for functional programming and I enjoy listening to some good music. I currently work at Qdentity as Junior Developer.

I’m in 5VWO. I pretty sure that’s year 12 for British people, and grade 10 for American folks. I think.

Some random facts about me: I have a cat called Coco (who apparently has an instagram profile: @coconootje23, go follow him!). I absolutely love Belgian waffles (but stroopwafels are nice too). I enjoy playing Minecraft. I’m very clumsy; I tend to break things.

Here’s a random picture I decided I liked :)

Writing

I somewhat regularly post rants on my blog. Here’s a little selection:

The role of generative AI in writing, an essay about the ways we could and shoudn’t use AI tooling in the context of high schools.

0x10c , where I explore ideas related to interactive end-user programming as a game.

The Web is the everything protocol, which expresses my frustrations with the state of the Web.

I also got invited to Somtoday HQ once, after I wrote a blogpost calling their UI ugly.

Contact

You can reach me via IRC, I’m often hanging out on Libera; my nick is axcelott. You can also send me a friend request on Discord, my handle is Axcelott#9914.

I absolutely hate social media, so I’m not on Snapchat, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok or Facebook. You can follow me via RSS tho.

Alternatively, if your message is urgent (it isn’t) you can also reach me via email. I love a good conversation, so don’t hesitate to shoot me an email, I’ll always reply. My address is below:
