About
I write about computer science by taking things apart. Every post starts with something that bothered me — a tool, a concept, an abstraction I used but didn't really understand — and descends layer by layer until it hits something tangible. The post ends when it clicks.
No exhaustive guides, no tutorials. Just one question at a time, taken down to the fundamentals.
Long-term, these posts feed a bigger ambition: a glossary of computer science built the same way — definitions with the floor beneath them.
I'm Tarek Elidrissi, a software engineer with a generalist's curiosity.
