I'm Vinay Keerthi, and I go by @stonecharioteer everywhere. I blog at tech.stonecharioteer.com about tech, and at stonecharioteer.com about life, reading and, sometimes, cooking. I especially love learning while I write and I use my tech blog as a medium to teach myself things that I've either taken for granted or I want to understand the internals of deeply.

I've been building Merrilin, a book reading app that I use every day. Its goal is to be the best reading app you can find, and to provide an AI chat companion that answers your questions without revealing spoilers.

I'm an avid Linux user since 2006 and believe that $YEAR is the year of the Linux Desktop!
