+## Hello there! | নমস্কার! | नमस्ते! | Bonjour!

I am a recent Computer Science graduate from the University of Calgary. I enjoy building things and collaborating with others in a shared setting and being a part of a community that shares this passion for coming up with innovative solutions for problems.
As an aspiring Software Engineer and DevOps enthusiast, I love assembling things, both software and hardware, from scratch and automating everything. I am always eager to learn and stay up-to-date with the latest technologies and industry trends.

-> As of January 18, 2024

Some of the things that I am occupied with **now** are:
-- Working on [JobAppTrackr](https://github.com/Bhodrolok/JobAppTrackr), [rupantar](https://github.com/Bhodrolok/rupantar), and this [website](https://github.com/Bhodrolok/Bhodrolok.github.io).
-- Learning C# and Golang.
-- Gitting gud at [bash](https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/bash.1.html) and [PowerShell](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/) scripting.
-- Finding ways to improve my previous projects.
+- Working on [JobAppTrackr](https://github.com/Bhodrolok/JobAppTrackr), [rupantar](https://github.com/Bhodrolok/rupantar), and this [website](https://github.com/Bhodrolok/Bhodrolok.github.io).
+ - A few others on top of these but those are still mostly in the drawing board/Proof-of-Concept stage!
+- Learning C# and Golang while also getting better with JavaScript/TypeScript and Python (along with their ever-evolving ecosystems!).
+- Gitting gud at [bash](https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/bash.1.html) and [PowerShell](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/) scripting.
+ - TUIs >>> GUIs
- Trying to self-host some apps & services on my servers without breaking them.
-- Playing around with [OCI](https://www.oracle.com/in/cloud/compute/virtual-machines/).
+ - A whole lotta [Docker](https://xkcd.com/1988/)-ing. Works on LAN btw.
+- Playing around with [OCI](https://www.oracle.com/in/cloud/compute/virtual-machines/).
+ - I find their ['Always Free'](https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/FreeTier/freetier_topic-Always_Free_Resources.htm) tier offering much more generous than the other Cloud Service Providers.
- Practicing mindfulness and gratitude.
-- Catching up on my reading list and movies backlog.
+- Catching up on my reading list and movies backlog. Some podcasts here and there as well!
+ - Will probably work on something that allows me to post them here on this website with an automated status update workflow 🚧
