In 2023, I had the privilege of contributing to the Congreso Internacional de Sustentabilidad (CIS) at IBERO, an important event focused on sustainability. As part of my involvement, I was entrusted with the task of developing the official website for the conference. The website, which can be found at cisibero.pages.dev, serves as a digital hub for information about the event. While I’m proud of the work I did, I recognize that there’s always room for improvement and learning in web development....

I’m excited to share the beginning of my homelab journey. A homelab is a personal playground for tech enthusiasts like me to experiment with various technologies, learn new skills, and create a personalized computing environment. Join me as I dive into the world of self-hosted services, network management, and the endless possibilities of running your own home server setup. Homelab updated The Beginning: An Old Dell Optiplex My homelab journey began with an old Dell Optiplex, equipped with an i7-3770 processor....

In this post, I’ll be sharing some of my projects, and insights. I consider myself an avid gamer and technology enthusiast, I’ve had the opportunity to explore various genres, platforms, and even dabble in game development. Projects C# C# was one of my first introductions to game development IIRC. This was a request from a professor in order to get us comfortable with C# Link to the code Unreal Engine I started learing Unreal Engine in order to enter the “Mission to Minerva” challenge, made by KitBash3D....

A while ago, I was tasked with building two mini PCs for a client. I decided on using AMD’s Ryzen 7 4750G Pro Processor (around the time they were recent). I decided on AsRock’s tiny case and motherboard combo, and the client requested 32GB of RAM and a 2TB SSD for each PC. I believe they were meant to run some web-scraping stuff, but they wanted a very small footprint both in size and energy consumption....

I have been working with 3D for a few years now, and I have to say, it has been a great avenue for me to express my creativity. I’ve had the opportunity to work with different software, and I have to say, I’m still learning new things. I have been wanting to properly learn Blender, though SketchUp has been my main software for the past few years. I got a 3D printer as a gift and I’ve been printing my models, which has been a great experience....

Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus (ARC) Challenge The Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus (ARC) Challenge on Kaggle is an exciting and complex AI competition that tests the limits of artificial intelligence in pattern recognition and problem-solving. This page will be updated regularly with my progress, insights, and learnings as I work on this challenge. What is the ARC Challenge? The ARC Challenge, created by François Chollet, is designed to measure general intelligence in AI systems....

C# Program This is a battleship game that I made in C#, very early on my programming journey (sorry in advance for the bad practices and spaghetti code): using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Threading.Tasks; namespace Naval { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { //ARREGLOS ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// //declaramos 10 arreglos de 10 elementos por cada tabla: 4 tablas, entonces 40 //arreglos, esto para poder determinar la posición....
