Chips
Driven by logic, caffeine, and side quests.
I’m a programmer and hardware technician based in Italy — nerdy by default, a little weird by design, and methodical by necessity. By day, I work with code and components. By night, I dive into 3D modeling, play the drums, prototype tools I may never finish, or just follow whatever rabbit hole my brain decides to chase that day.
I created Spacechips to share the things that fascinate me — discoveries, small breakthroughs, strange ideas — and to hopefully build a space where people like me (and unlike me) feel welcome. I love the idea of being a kind of “tech mentor” for those who feel new to it all. I’ve been that person, looking for clear guides and finding only scattered docs or noise. So I decided to write the kind of content I wish I had when I started.
Spacechips is also a tool for me — a way to keep myself grounded, especially when ADHD pulls me in 20 directions. It helps me stay focused, motivated, and connected to what I build.
Most of what I share comes from tools I use in my daily work or experiments: Linux setups, hardware builds, visual tricks, and code patterns I’ve tested myself. Some of it might turn into tutorials, some into creative renders or blog entries powered by obsession and a good playlist.
⚙️ Things I like (besides code):
- Music and drumming — loud rhythms make my brain happy.
- Puzzle kits, robot building, and DIY electronics.
- Sci-fi films, quiet walks with my dog, and that one Spotify playlist I keep looping like a ritual.
🧭 What I care about:
- Making complex things easier to understand.
- Being honest, curious, and always a bit offbeat.
- Helping people go from “I don’t get this” to “I’ve got this.”
