<!-- ## The less technical
|
||||
|
||||
Occasionally I like to spend some time doing something that doesn't involve programming.
|
||||
|
||||
I've been a musician since a very young age, and still continue my musical experimentation (albeit to a lesser degree) in my free time. I generally focus on integrating various samples into new genres, and like to produce tracks that float somewhere between dubstep and lofi. Check out [my music page](/music) for more info.
|
||||
|
||||
I also enjoy shooting and editing photos. I almost exclusively shoot with just a phone camera, and like playing around with various bits of software for the finishing touches. Check out my photography and 3D rendering work [on my Instagram page](https://instagram.com/evanpratten).

<h3>Rust libraries</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
I develop and maintain many Rust libraries. Some are end products, but many are developed out of necessity for other projects of mine. I see a strong future in the Rust programming language, and it has become my language of choice in personal projects.

<h3>Robotics</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
From 2017 to 2021, I was the Lead Software Developer at [Raider Robotics](https://raiderrobotics.org), a competitive robotics team. I handled most aspects of core software development and subteam management. Some of the biggest projects I lead during my time with the team were:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Lib5K](https://github.com/frc5024/lib5k), the core control and mathematics library for the team
|
||||
- [Darth Raider](https://github.com/frc5024/InfiniteRecharge), a highly integrated robot with fully-autonomous navigation and control
|
||||
- [HATCHField](https://github.com/frc5024/DeepSpace), a robot with experimental on-the-fly path planning capabilities
|
||||
- [Q*bert](https://github.com/frc5024/powerup), a robot that integrated my first ever computer-vision-assisted aiming system

<h3>OpenDepthMap</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
OpenDepthMap was an experiment in [Binocular Depth Mapping](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binocular_disparity), based around the [ultraleap](https://www.ultraleap.com/)'s first generation [LeapMotion](https://www.ultraleap.com/product/leap-motion-controller/) hand tracking sensors.
|
||||
|
||||
The end product of this project was a tool to generate reasonably accurate depth maps in real-time from a single LeapMotion camera.

title: Animation

|

|

Working in and around the animation industry for since 2020, and working with a bunch of CAD designers beforehand, I have been fairly immersed in the world of 3D animation for a while. I am not a particularly good artist, but I use my minimal art skills to produce short animations as learning experiments. When I animate something, I am usually making heavy use of a piece of technology in the project that I either want to learn about on my own, or need to learn about for work-related reasons.
|
||||
|
||||
An example of a project made out of necessity is embedded below. This robotic arm was built to learn about object constraints, rigs, and inverse kinematics:

I also have fairly extensive experience working with Adobe Flash through some animation courses I took in highschool. I don't have access to my old school projects anymore, and even if I did, its not like I could embed a flash project into a website anymore anyways.

I have been interested in photography for many years. My earliest memories taking photos involve disposable film cameras my parents would buy me from a nearby grocery store and since then, my interest has only further evolved. I have never used professional camera equipment for my personal work, but instead like sticking to phone cameras and heavy post-processing to give my photos my distinct *look*.

title: Videography
|

|
||||
|
||||
Almost as long as I have been doing [photography](/hobbies/arts/photography), I have been recording and editing videos. I have slowly been upgrading my gear over the years. I started with an old point & shoot that shot in standard definition owned by my parents, then eventually got myself a GoPro Hero 3 (which recently [became my webcam](/blog/gopro-webcam/)).
|
||||
|
||||
With these first two cameras, I filmed parkour videos with friends, as well as a project of mine where I filmed and edited daily vlogs for a few months. These never got published. The goal of my vlog project was to learn more about camera usage, film techniques, video editing, and YouTube publishing back in the middle of elementary school. I still have the finished videos on a hard drive somewhere, and its neat to look back at what I was doing back then.
|
||||
|
||||
I then moved on to my second camera, a GoPro Hero 5 Black. This was, and still is used to film many of my video projects due to its versatility. With this camera, I produced a vlog-style video series with some friends in 8th grade for my graduating class to document our final school trip together. This is one of the videos in the series:

|
||||
</iframe>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
|
||||
Looking back on that project, I really should have got myself a camera stabilizer, but aside from that, I'm happy with the results, especially for the short time frame I had to produce the 4-episode series.
|
||||
|
||||
Around the same time, I was producing music videos with a group of friends as a part of the [RetryLife project](/retrylife). Unfortunately, every single one of these videos no longer exists. In my time editing these videos, I learned a lot about motion tracking, compositing, motion graphics, and more.
|
||||
|
||||
In highschool, I produced two videos for my [robotics](/hobbies/robotics) team, Raider Robotics. These were both shot under an extremely tight schedule, and both on other people's smartphones. The first video is the robot reveal for *HATCHField*, and the second is the reveal for *Darth Raider*. For more info on these, see my [robotics hobby page](/hobbies/robotics).

I am very much a [homelabber](https://www.reddit.com/r/homelab/) except unlike most, my gear is spread across many physical locations around the world. To keep everything easily accessible, and securely interconnected, I have built and maintain a large virtual network.
|
||||
|
||||
With hosts spread across both the public internet, and in private networks behind extremely restrictive firewalls, I needed to build a secure and versatile virtual private networking setup to handle traffic routing and device connections.

title: VA3ZZA on the air
|

|

# Hi, I'm VA3ZZA
|
||||
|
||||
Tying many of my hobbies together is [Amateur Radio](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amateur_radio). I have been licensed with the callsign `VA3ZZA` since December 15th 2020.
|
||||
|
||||
My interest in amateur radio came in 2018, when I discovered with world of software-defined radios. In the time between discovering amateur radio and getting licensed I
|
||||
|
||||
- Experimented with decoding images from the NOAA-15, NOAA-18, and NOAA-19 satellites
|
||||
- Listened in to a few nets held on local repeaters using my SDRs
|
||||
- Begun to learn morse code
|
||||
- Continued to learn about various forms of radio communication through DEFCON talks, and presentations from various radio clubs online
|
||||
|
||||
After getting licensed and receiving my callsign, I immediately got on the air (quite literally) and started participating in local nets, occasional simplex QSOs, and more.
|
||||
|
||||
## Finding me on the air
|
||||
|
||||
I primarily operate 40m CW, and 70cm FM voice, with no particular schedule. If you hear me calling CQ, some say hi! I also beacon myself and my qth via APRS at regular intervals if you want to find me in-person. I also usually monitor Echolink in some form, so you may be able to reach me via my phone (`#636611`) or simplex node (`#687289`).
|
||||
|
||||
To see when I am calling CQ on the HF bands, check out the handy chart below:
|
||||
|
||||
<a href="https://rbn.telegraphy.de/activity/VA3ZZA"><img src="https://rbn.telegraphy.de/activity/image/VA3ZZA" width="100%"></a>
|
||||
|
||||
If you would like to schedule a QSO with me, please contact me via my email at the top of this page.
|
||||
|
||||
## The "shack"
|
||||
|
||||
I operate from my college dorm, equipped with a Baofeng UV-5R, and an Elecraft KX2 HF Transceiver. I love both radios, and they nicely fit my plan of exclusively operating QRP.
|
||||
|
||||
Due to the restrictions of operating indoors, during the winter months my HF antenna is a bent dipole made of scrap ethernet cables, and when I am outdoors I operate with an endfed-half-wave made of speaker wire.
|
||||
|
||||
## VA3ZZA-L
|
||||
|
||||
`VA3ZZA-L` is my homebrew UHF simplex node. It is powered by a Raspberry Pi 3B+, feeding into a slightly modified generic USB sound card with a custom PTT circuit, then into an extra Baofeng UV-5R. Finally, this feeds into a UHF antenna I currently have mounted up high, attached to the side of the building I live in. The whole setup is running at 3W, and provides enough coverage for me to hit the node from anywhere on campus.
|
||||
|
||||
If you would like to call in to my node, dial up node number `687289` on any echolink-compatible repeater, node, or software client.

# Robotics
|
||||
|
||||
My first introduction to robotics was back in 2016, when myself and three other friends formed a competitive robotics team at our elementary school called the *Star Trekies*. My role on the team was both hardware prototyping and single-handedly programming the entire robot. At the time, I worked in NI's [LabVIEW](https://www.ni.com/en-ca/shop/labview.html), which was something I quite enjoyed, and was a great learning experience.
|
||||
|
||||
When presented with the question of which highschool I would apply to at the end of 8th grade, I specifically chose [H.B. Beal Secondary School](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._B._Beal_Secondary_School) due to their well-known competitive robotics team, [Raider Robotics](https://www.raiderrobotics.org/), which later turned into a special-invite full-credit program at the school (conveniently counting towards my college requirements).
|
||||
|
||||
In my first season (2017-2018) with Raider Robotics, I worked on [Q*bert](https://www.thebluealliance.com/team/5024/2018) as a programmer. I very quickly fell down the rabbit holes of both the software and hardware sides of robotics at the same time, and dedicated most of my time towards learning about real-time systems, and writing libraries to better the team. It was around this time I started work on one of my largest projects to date, [Lib5K](https://github.com/frc5024/lib5k), a monolithic robotics library that can do literally everything Raider Robotics needs for their robots. Some information, documentation, and history on the project can be found [here](https://frc5024.github.io/lib5k).

</div>
|
||||
|
||||
In my second robotics season (2018-2019), I was nominated to the *Lead of Software Development* role, taking charge of a team of 12 software developers under me as well as taking on the responsibility of teaching new team members how to work with robotics systems, and in some cases, how to program in general. This season, I held an influential role in the design and implementation of our robot [HATCHField](https://www.thebluealliance.com/team/5024/2019). With HATCHField, my team and I developed crucial autonomous software that helped bring our team to the provincial championships in 2018. I got my first high-pressure hands-on experience with real-time computer vision, path planning, and autonomous path following during this robotics season.

|
||||
|
||||
From late 2018 to mid 2021, I worked on a testbed robot, named *MiniBot*. This robot was built by other team members, rebuilt during the very end of 2018 by myself and some other team members, then fully rebuilt by myself during 2019. MiniBot was used for prototyping hardware for other robots, as well as being a software and unit test testbed for myself and my software team.

|

In my third, and technically final robotics season (2019-2020), I both took lead of the software development team, and played a highly influential role in the hardware design of our robot, [Darth Raider](https://www.thebluealliance.com/team/5024/2020). Darth Raider was a true technological spectacle, featuring many highly-integrated physical systems, tied together with many sensors, a multi-camera computer vision system, and high-performance fully-autonomous [control software](https://github.com/frc5024/InfiniteRecharge).

After the 2019-2020 robotics season, Raider Robotics temporarily shut down due to COVID-19, but I continued work on MiniBot and Lib5K along with two other team members in an effort to provide as much information and tooling to the team before we all graduated highschool.

title: Competitive Programming
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
I remember back at the very beginning of my 9th grade year, I got pulled aside by [Ethan](https://github.com/ethan-gallant), [Harwood](https://github.com/salamander2/), and [Carter](https://github.com/hyperliskdev/), and was told something along the lines of "Hey, we are doing a programming competition, and we are signing you up for it". And just like that, I began my adventure into competitive programming.
|
||||
|
||||
The first event I participated in was the 2018 [ECOO Programming Contest](https://ecoo.org/ecoo-cs/). I have no memory of how well we did, but I do remember blue-screening Ethan's laptop with a prime number generator that filled up all his available RAM. Valuable lessons about memory management and pre-caching lookup tables were learned, and I moved on.
|
||||
|
||||
Later that same year, I was granted an invite to the elusive [Google Foobar](https://foobar.withgoogle.com/) challenge. I forgive anyone that has no idea what I'm talking about here. Google Foobar is Google's super secret hiring challenge. Googling it will lead you to a few blog posts by other people that got invited, and not a whole lot else. Invites are granted *by Google* and will pop up on your screen when on one of their websites if they deem you worthy. At the time I completed Foobar, there were five challenges of progressing difficulty, covering everything you might expect from a hard programming interview, but all put together as parts of a story. It was a really really cool experience. And yes, I did say *"completed"*. I even got the recruiting email from Google, but was ultimately rejected due to being too young (14 at the time).
|
||||
|
||||
> Hi Evan,
|
||||
><br>Hope all is well! I work on Google’s Campus Tech Intern Recruiting team and saw you had played the foo.bar challenge in the past. I’m really interested in learning more about you and sharing what opportunities we have for students.
|
||||
> <br>...
|
||||
|
||||
In February 2019, with the same group as before, I participated in the [Canadian Computing Competition](https://cemc.uwaterloo.ca/contests/computing.html) held by the Centre for Education in Mathematics and Computing at the University of Waterloo. I also participated in ECOO again that year in March.
|
||||
|
||||
In June of 2019, I participated in my first Capture-The-Flag (CTF) hacking event, hosted by Google. [Google CTF](https://capturetheflag.withgoogle.com/) 2019 was a solo endeavour for myself, and I had great fun trying my hand at some very hard programming and hacking challenges.
|
||||
|
||||
The following year, in 2020, I once again participated in the Canadian Computing Competition in February. I also picked up a new event that year. [Hack-A-Sat](https://www.hackasat.com/), presented by the United States Air Force and United States Space Force was another fun Capture-The-Flag event, centered around the security of in-orbit satellites. Many challenges involved decoding encrypted or obfuscated transmissions from spacecraft. I placed 435th out of 1278 participants, which isn't too bad for a solo attempt against many of the best competitive hackers in the world. I also competed in Google CTF again this year in August.

title: Discord Bots
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
With Discord being my most used chat platform, I commonly find myself build bots of various size to extend the functionality of various servers. The following are some notable bots I've built. These are all built specifically for groups of people, and include features "outsiders" may find useless or annoying.
|
||||
|
||||
## Benson
|
||||
|
||||
**Benson** is a Discord bot built for a large group of students at Sheridan College called *Res 3*. The bot has a variety of features, all specifically built around inside jokes, and a few utility commands for managing a server of over 100 people. This bot is *not* available for public use, but is open source.
|
||||
|
||||
{{ github(repo="res-3/benson") }}
|
||||
|
||||
## RenameBot
|
||||
|
||||
**RenameBot** is a custom Discord bot that lives on a server where all members have admin privileges. Due to the way we have configured permissons on this server, some users cannot change eachother's nicknames (we like to rename eachother after quotes we say).
|
||||
|
||||
The solution to this is to create a bot (**RenameBot**) that has higher permissons than all server members. **RenameBot** then acts as a nickname change broker for all users. Usage is a simple *slash command*:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
/rename @user <Name>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This bot is open source, and available for use on your own servers. Check out the code.
|
||||
|
||||
{{ github(repo="homie-pile/rename-bot") }}
|
||||
|
||||
## *HACKERMAN*
|
||||
|
||||
***HACKERMAN*** is a bot built for a few programming-related servers I am a member of. The bot contains a few joke functions, and some utilities including:
|
||||
|
||||
- DNS and rDNS lookups
|
||||
- Internet LookingGlass functionality
|
||||
- Text-to-Image conversion
|
||||
- Minecraft server status checking
|
||||
- Discord debugging commands
|
||||
- IETF RFC reference
|
||||
- GitHub and GitLab snippet embedding
|
||||
- various joke commands
|
||||
|
||||
The source code is available on GitHub.
|
||||
|
||||
{{ github(repo="nwnd/hackerman") }}
|
||||
|
||||
## Tiny Audio Bot
|
||||
|
||||
**Tiny Audio Bot** is a custom YouTube music bot for a few Discord servers. This bot was built to show {{mention(user="LuS404")}} and {{mention(user="SNOWZ7Z")}} how to develop a simple bot in Rust. This music bot has two extremely simple commands:
|
||||
|
||||
```text

!play <URL>

!fuckoff
|

# Game Development
|
||||
|
||||
One of many software fields I am interested in is game development. I have been developing small to medium sized games since around 10th grade, both for school projects and for fun.
|
||||
|
||||
## FlippyCat
|
||||
|
||||
One of the first games I remember *finishing* was called [FlippyCat](https://github.com/ewpratten/flippycat). FlippyCat was a Flappy Bird clone built by myself and my friend [Carter](https://github.com/hyperliskdev) with the goal of being intentionally hard and with low quality graphics. All assets were roughly hand-drawn and designed to look quickly thrown together to add comedic value. For this project, I built my own game engine from scratch, called [PicoEngine](https://github.com/ewpratten/picoengine), and also learned how to program paralax scrolling backgrounds.
|
||||
|
||||

||||

|
||||
<p style="margin-top: 0;"><em>FlippyCat</em></p>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
|
||||
## ***SLATE:* Infiltration**
|
||||
|
||||
Closely following the FlippyCat project and as a part of the same computer science class, I built another game with my friend [Silas](https://github.com/ExVacuum) called [***SLATE:* Infiltration**](https://github.com/Java-prog-class-2019/slate) which was a text-based adventure game with portals and non-euclidean buildings. The whole project was a crazy learning experience.
|
||||
|
||||
The game's main concept was that you explored a building in search of a vault, except some of the rooms had doors that connected to rooms elsewhere on the map, essentially acting as portals. This raised an interesting problem of requiring rooms to be instanced and referenced to each other, which was a good way to learn about memory management and how to use pointers.
|
||||
|
||||
On top of the architectural challenges, we also opted to make the game as forgiving as possible input-wise. Other groups in our computer science class had lists of set commands one could use to interact with their games, but Silas and I wanted to essentially create our own mini natural language processing engine, which we did via a large eBNF definition set, and the ANTLR toolchain.

||||

||||
|
||||
## Micromanaged Mike
|
||||
|
||||
The next year, in 2020, myself, [James](https://github.com/rsninja722), [Will](https://github.com/wm-c), and Silas banded together to produce our first game jam game together for [Ludum Dare 46](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46), called [Micromanaged Mike](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46/micromanaged-mike).
|
||||
|
||||
> "Truly put your multitasking skills to the test as you help Mike do daily tasks, hard parts is, Mike doesn’t have any autonomous body functions. You have to do everything for him, even making him blink."
|
||||
|
||||
The objective of the game was to get the main character, Mike, through his morning routine without letting him die. As the player, you were responsible for controlling each of Mike's limbs, plus manually beating his heart, making him breathe, and making him blink. We did use the word *micromanaged* in the title after all :wink:

## Deep Breath
|
||||
|
||||
Participating in Ludum Dare quickly became a tradition for my friends and I. In early 2021, we participated in [Ludum Dare 48](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/48), and produced the game [Deep Breath](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/48/deep-breath). This time, the team consisted of myself, James, Will, and [Cat](https://github.com/catarinaburghi).
|
||||
|
||||
> "**Deep Breath** is an exploration game where you explore an underwater cave in hopes of finding your lost transponder. Items and upgrades can be acquired along the way to assist your search."
|
||||
|
||||
This was my first time going in-depth into shader programming, and I had a lot of fun on the whole project. For this game, we all decided to program in the Rust programming language, and *none* of us had any prior experience with it. So, as a group of four people, thrown into a new programming language and toolset, we did extremely well! I am very happy with this project, and everyone else on the team seemed to enjoy the experience.

## **[data::loss]**
|
||||
|
||||
In late 2021, I once again participated in Ludum Dare, this time with a whole new group of friends to help out. For both this and the previous game jam, I acted as the team lead, both writing the majority of the software, and also coordinating everyone involved in the project.
|
||||
|
||||
The team for our [Ludum Dare 49](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/49) game, [**[data::loss]**](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/49/dataloss) was made up of myself, Carter, [Marcelo](https://github.com/SNOWZ7Z), [Luna](https://github.com/LuS404), [Emilia](https://www.instagram.com/demilurii/), [Kori](https://www.instagram.com/korigama/), Emmet, [James](https://twitter.com/jamesmakesgame), and Taya. Managing a team of 9 was quite the challenge, but also very fun, and everyone thuroughly enjoyed the process and end result of this game.
|
||||
|
||||
> "**[data::loss]** is a fast-paced side-scroller platforming game where you navigate a world full of graphical inconsistencies that have a habit of causing physical consequences."
|
||||
|
||||
The inspiration for **[data::loss]** was essentially: *"What if we made Geometry Dash, but it was infuriating to play?"* According to the game's reviews, we appear to have nailed that goal. Here are some of my favorites:
|
||||
|
||||
> *"Why would you make this game? Why would you do this to another person? Not everyone chose violence for this game jam. There was a game about a kobold making inventions out of junk to buy a nice rock. There was a physics game about mixing colored beads to make new colors. I saved some pirates from a dragon and some parrots in one game. This game took all my ideas of space and time and called them cringe. I don’t know what pit of hell you came from, but I hope you’re happy. 10/10."*
|
||||
> <br>\[[DragonSheep](https://ldjam.com/users/dragonsheep)\]
|
||||
|
||||
> *"... Overall this is a great game, the art and music is awesome, and there’s a good dose of humor and sass to the game. Awesome job!!"*
|
||||
> <br>\[[lukeoco1234](https://ldjam.com/users/lukeoco1234)\]
|
||||

title: The History of RetryLife
|
||||
aliases: [/retrylife]
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
**RetryLife** (previously known as **RetRY Life Music**) was a Canadian electronic music collective based in London, Ontario, Canada. Founded mid-2015 by [Evan Pratten](https://ewpratten.com) and [Nathan Desjardins](https://www.artstation.com/kondroel), the group was dedicated to publication and distribution of experimental Electronic dance music produced by a small group of local friends who struggled to find their own platforms.
|
||||
|
||||
RetryLife distributed music via their Bandcamp webpage as well as a now-defunct YouTube channel showcasing songs with short music videos and audio visualizations.
|
||||
|
||||
## Collaborations
|
||||
|
||||
RetryLife twice collaborated with [Lester B. Pearson School for the Arts](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lester_B._Pearson_School_for_the_Arts) to compose and produce music for various shows put on by the school's students. These collaborations include two orchestral pieces, "Lightining" and "Superspark", composed by Evan, along with a full-length theatrical soundtrack for the 2017 student-directed show: "Imagined".
|
||||
|
||||
Near RetryLife's time of founding, Evan and Nathan also participated in an initiative to bring live orchestral samples into the game [Warframe](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warframe) as a collaboration between Lester B. Pearson SFTA and [Big Blue Bubble](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Blue_Bubble).

# My Network
|
||||
|
||||
[](https://bgp.tools/as/398057)
|
||||
[](https://www.peeringdb.com/asn/398057)
|
||||
|
||||
I operate [Autonomous System](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_system_(Internet)) **398057**. This network is designed to be a playground for my experiments and research, while at the same time providing internet access to my servers and devices in a fast and reliable manner. -->
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- [](/images/network/net_map.svg) -->
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- ## Configuration & Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
Currently, the network operates with a partial routing table and is configured to act as an overlay transit provider for my downstream peers. The only routes known internally are those to peers and their customers.
|
||||
|
||||
This choice has a few reasons behind it:
|
||||
|
||||
- Only accepting my peers routes forces me to peer with as many ASes as I can, and develop good relations with other network operators.
|
||||
- Providing transit to select peers allows me to experiment with the technical implications that come with such a service. I ensure that each of these peers has a backup upstream, allowing me to tinker with lesser repercussions.
|
||||
|
||||
I generally aim to deploy routers with roughly 512MB of RAM, a single core, and 5-20GB of disk space. This additional limitation helps me learn to keep my router configs lean and efficient. -->
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- ## What is the network actually *doing*?
|
||||
|
||||
Currently, AS398057 is:
|
||||
|
||||
- Providing IPv6 transit to various clients
|
||||
- Running a private [tunnel brokerage](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tunnel_broker) service
|
||||
- Running an experiment to analyze the uses of [anycasted](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anycast) amateur radio services.
|
||||
- Hosting [APRS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_Packet_Reporting_System) IGates and [EchoLink](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EchoLink) Proxies
|
||||
|
||||
## Peering
|
||||
|
||||
AS398057 has an **open** peering policy and is willing to peer with networks which meet one of the following criteria:
|
||||
|
||||
- The network is connected to an IXP in common with AS398057
|
||||
- The network is able to directly cross-connect to an AS398057 router
|
||||
- The network is willing to peer over a tunnel
|
||||
|
||||
..and agrees to the following:
|
||||
|
||||
- Only send routes from your own network and/or your customers unless otherwise agreed upon
|
||||
- Only announce address space which you are authorized to announce
|
||||
- Only send traffic destined to the routes AS398057 announces to you
|
||||
|
||||
To request a peering arrangement, please contact me via email at [`peering@ewpratten.com`](mailto:peering@ewpratten.com), on discord at `ewpratten#9114`, or through a common IXP's peering portal.
|
||||
|
||||
### Additional peering information
|
||||
|
||||
- Routing policy may be found via WHOIS. ([`whois -h whois.radb.net AS398057`](https://www.radb.net/query?keywords=AS398057))
|
||||
- I will generally announce [`AS-EWP`](https://www.radb.net/query?keywords=AS-EWP) to peers by default

title: Blocking and depreferring BGP routes from specific countries
|
||||
---
|

|
||||
Hurricane Electric keeps a somewhat up-to-date list of ASNs registered to each country in the world. This is obtainable via:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
export COUNTRY=CA # This is the country code to look up
|
||||
curl -A "asd" https://bgp.he.net/country/$COUNTRY | grep -o -E "AS([0-9]+)" | sort | uniq
|
||||
# You should get a list of ASNs piped to stdout
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Two types of filters are handy. Blackholing, and depreferring.

Back in 2017, I took a school-organized trip around Québec. My friends and I brought our cameras, loaded up on SD cards, and went all out with some pretty creative shots.
|
||||
|
||||
While I was mainly focused on shooting video, I did take a few hundred photos along the way, and later edited them all to fit a sort of rough grainy theme I was playing around with at the time.

# VFX and Animation
|
||||
|

I work in the animation industry, and as such some of the ideas I am unable to implement at work make their way into personal projects.
|
||||
|
||||
## USD in Docker
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
This project aims to build an easy to use Docker container that contains everything needed for me to experiment with Pixar's [Universal Scene Description (USD)](http://openusd.org/) in a safe and reproducible environment.

title: "Projects: Chromebook Hacking"
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
In the early days of Chromebooks, I was an active member of the os and firmware hacking scene. I have long since moved on from development on Chomebooks, but a few old projects still stand.
|
||||
|
||||
When I was working on these projects, the Chromium team had not opened up the ability to launch Linux applications to the public yet, so we would put our devices in developer mode, and work around the tight security sandbox manually.
|
||||
|
||||
## Chromebrew
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
I used to contribute to the Chromebrew project. Chromebrew is a community-driven package manager for CROS (Chrome OS) devices.

|

|

I got myself into the weird world of hacking ereaders a while back. Most Kobo products are just poorly secured Linux machines. These projects abuse various aspects of the firmware upgrade process to load custom code onto my ereader.
|
||||
|
||||
## Kobo Rust Library
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
`kobo-rs` is a minimal Rust library for interacting with modified Kobo e-readers. This is designed for use in applications running on the Kobo, not over the network.
|
||||
|
||||
This is my current core Kobo library used in various other (mostly private) projects.

|
||||
## Kobo Tweaks
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
This project contains some of my earlier Kobo tweaks and tools, and was used as my initial bootstrapping environment for later work.

|

|

|
||||
## KoboSSH
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The KoboSSH project contains the tools needed to compile [dropbear](https://matt.ucc.asn.au/dropbear/dropbear.html) for the `arm-kobo-linux-gnueabihf` system (all recent Kobo products). This binary is used for root shell access on Kobo devices which, in my case, is used to deploy and debug software on e-readers.

## KoLib
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
KoLib is a modern C++ library to assist in development of software targeting Kobo products. This project was superseded by my Kobo Rust library.

||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
FrostBucket is a server-side Minecraft plugin that adds a new item, the Frost Bucket. This item turns water into ice. The FrostBucket plugin does not have any intentional practical use, but just exists to satisfy a concept brought up on a late-night Discord call: *"What if you could put Frost Walker on a bucket?"*
