Blog


SPELVNCAM·VRSAE·VISERE

As its name suggests, this place is dangerous. However if you do know what you're looking for, you might be able to find the hidden gems.

Note: some of the posts there are quite old and might no longer reflect my current views on various topics. Certain posts may contain stuff that not everyone would like to see. May contain nuts.

Does not appear to contain a significant amount of cerebral activity.

Notekins

Micro-blogging before social media ruined everything. This is where I do stuff that I used to do on Twitter and Mastodon nowadays.

Library


Music Library

Music arranged and some, composed, by me.

Picture Library

Nothin'.

Code Library

Get lost in my messy code!

Chris Xiong is a not-so-young-any-more coder from a small city of China. Now aged more than 20, this hacker is still just writing code for fun. Crazy follower of "Free Software" (but not FSF's ideology in particular). Develops free software alone but seldom feels lonely. Sincere friends are always cherished.

This site was written from scratch in XHTML without using any kind of framework whatsoever. Later it was migrated to HTML5 (still not using 3rd-party frameworks). Poorly-written C++ and Python code powers the backend. History of this site is available here and more here.
