Mendelovits

  • I'm a comedian, a software engineer, and some third thing that is always changing lately.
  • I've been posting a joke every day on social media.
  • I build a ton of things that probably don't need to exist and maybe I leave them unfinished. Probably I leave them unfinished.
  • I write on Substack way too infrequently — a million drafts and I don't really know what's going to get out there.
  • I have two completely different careers.
  • I don't have health insurance.

A joke a day
Neither an engineer nor a comedian, but somehow still both.

Games and toys I built instead of doing literally anything else — a fighting game, an AI logic game, a music visualizer

I'm always working a few contracts and very rarely do I share anything open source. Maybe that will change. If anything this grid is just a flex.
