+.B "The Null Identity"
+\(en
+An organization that I created that focuses on explaining
+science and technology from a satirical-pseudoreligious context,
+with an associated website: https://society.nullring.xyz. I wrote
+the website with a primitive templating language/static site generator
+in pure POSIX shell script which generates the website from simpler template
+and data files.

+.B "Snake3"
+\(en
+Although this was a small project, it showcases my skills at writing man pages in the roff
+format and my ability to come up with novel algorithms, as well as working with threading
+in the C programming language. It's a simple snake game in the terminal that works
+without the curses library. It was also a collaboration with Kai Stevenson: https://kaistevenson.com. You can get
+the source code from https://prestonpan.tech/files/snake3/.

+.B "NoExcess"
+\(en
+NoExcess is a fully featured turing complete programming language that I have written.
+It is heavily inspired by scheme, and like scheme, it is a functional programming
+language. It was made to have a simple set of built-in functions, and a builtin
+way to declare variables and functions. Float, integer, boolean, and string datatypes
+are also supported along with the list, function and symbol datatypes, just like
+in other lisp-like languages.
+.BL
+.B "COMAS"
+\(en
+Short for the computer operated math assistance program. It will do extremely
+complex calculations (operations within quaternionic functional tensors) in the future,
+but right now only quaternions are fully supported. It comes with a clever way to
+represent hyperreal numbers as a non-communatative derivative operator division
+ring.

+.B "Systems"
+\(en
+Extensive knowledge of operating systems such as GNU/Linux, OpenBSD, NetBSD, and 9front/plan9, as I have used all of these systems
+as daily drivers on my personal machine and as servers.

+.B "Sysadmining"
+\(en
+I sysadmin my own server where I host multiple websites, an email server, git server, and more. As a result, I have knowledge
+of many standard tools for sysadmining (docker, ssh, common servers and daemons) and have knowledge of many different operating
+systems.

+I have good knowledge of c, python, shell, x86 assembly, and HTML/css/Javascript.

+.B "Development tools"

+Knowledge of standard collaborative development tools (command line git, writing UNIX man pages, using build systems like make/cmake/autotools)
+as well as writing papers in LaTeX and roff.
+.BL
+.B "Mathematics"
+\(en
+I have knowledge of mathematics up to about a 3rd year university level due to self study, and have gotten distinction in mathematics
+contests such as the Fermat Waterloo math competition (knowledge of multivariable calculus, linear algebra, discrete mathematics,
+and ordinary differential equations, among other topics).
+.BL
+.B "Physics"
+\(en
+Aside from the mathematics which is of course a very important skill in physics, I have done self study on many advanced
+university level topics such as electrodynamics and kinematics from a multivariable calculus perspective. I am also working
+with two classmates on a completely novel grand unified theory of physics, which will be published on my website when it
+is done.

+.B "Music"
+\(en
+I've been playing piano for more than 10 years in total, and have been singing for as long as I can remember.
+Some of my piano improvisation is on my website.
