### About I am a student at the Southern Alberta Insitute of Technology (SAIT). I have two goals in my software development career. 1. The security, privacy, and anonymity of the internet and other digital devices. 2. The accessibility of this technology to the visually impaired. Some of my projects reflect these goals. Others are just fun along the way. I have all of my code projects hosted on [my Github](https://github.com/TTWNO). ### Projects **[epub-with-pinyin](https://github.com/TTWNO/epub-with-pinyin)** --- I wrote a program to add Pinyin above Chinese characters in .epub files to assist myself and others learning Mandarin Chinese. **[chess](https://github.com/TTWNO/chess)** --- I wrote a command-line chess game in C++. It is compileable on almost any system. **[tait.tech](https://github.com/TTWNO/tait.tech)** --- All the code for my website is open source. **[Napolean](https://github.com/TTWNO/Napolean)** --- A work-in-progress suite of tools to be used in conjunction with a Raspberry Pi and camera to produce text files from scanned books. **[subnetting](https://github.com/TTWNO/subnetting)** --- A one-night write of a tool to automatically calculate network subnet masks based on required hosts and base IP. I also ocassionally put content on my [lbry channel](https://lbry.tv/@tait:7), and the [blog I host on this site](/blog/). #### Ideas Sometimes I have ideas that I haven't done anything with yet. Those are [here](/ideas/). ### Contact You can reach me via email at [tait@tait.tech](mailto:tait@tait.tech) If you use PGP, [this is my public key](/public-key.asc)
