Hi, I'm Ryan, and this is my corner of the internet.

You may know me from my work with Pudince, Microsoft or Ryan Walpole Enterprises. You might also know of me from somewhere else - like the real world.

What's up

I was inspired by a friend of mine, FriedOrange, to create a website where I can share those things that are passionate to me - the way I used to with my website ryanwalpole.com when I was younger, before that domain began a part of my company.

My intention is to build this site as a place to put random things that I'm passionate about as well as scribbling down useless information or things that come to mind that I'd like to share with the world. I hope that you'll come back in the future to have a look around and see if there's anything worth reading.
p.s. thank you brad for letting me steal the .xyz domain name idea!

My Thoughts

My most recent three blog posts are...

I've got 20 minutes. That's about 20 minutes more than I've had to even think about writing in my blog since my last entry. But 20 minutes is 20 minutes, so let's see what I...

Schnitzels and FPS games... like 2018

Since my last entry I've just been taking the year slowly and surely. I decided late last year that I needed to give myself a bit of break. I've been burning myself out on life lately...

Software and Projects

I'm a software engineer by trade. I mostly release software through my company, Ryan Walpole Enterprises - or through it's open source subsidiary, RWE Labs. But ocassionally I will work on something so dumb or silly, just for fun - whether it be after work or on a lunch break. I've released a few of them here on this website so please do enjoy.

A personal highlight would be the bean file format and bean image viewer application. That was a fever dream and a half...
