About

Hey there, I’m Abid.

I love building cool pieces of tech. Why?

There are two main reasons:

1. Breaking things - Who doesn’t enjoy breaking things? It helps one explore what’s inside (apparently not Intel). (and also boosts a local vendor’s coffee sales).
2. Building things - The adrenaline hit feels really good when sleep deprived, high on caffeine (4 shots of espresso) and trying to solve that silly bug at 0345 hrs.

I also contribute to the Linux kernel because, let’s be honest, who wouldn’t want to say, “I have patches upstream in the Linux kernel”? 😎

Currently, I’m working on device drivers and the perf subsystem. I’m open to exploring other subsystems and collaborating on both my own and open-source projects.

So, if you’ve got an idea, let’s grab a coffee and chat! ☕
