Hello everyone!!

<p style='text-align: justify;'>I am Sanchayan Maity and I love electronics, programming, music and books. My other interests are Mathematics, Physics and Cooking for which I don’t find time currently, but want to take them up in the long run. When it comes to sports I love cycling and badminton.</p>

<p style='text-align: justify;'>I use to live in Mumbai and worked as an Embedded Systems Engineer from July 2010 to 2012 at Godrej Security Solutions, a sub division of Godrej & Boyce Mfg. Co. Ltd. I live in Bangalore now. Worked at [Toradex](https://www.toradex.com/) from 2013-2017 as a Development Engineer on Linux for their downstream BSP while also making [upstream contributions](https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/log/?qt=author&q=sanchayan). I now work at Harman International and am responsible for a custom Linux FPGA driver for a framegrabber kind of system.</p>

<p style='text-align: justify;'>This blog is going to be mostly about the things which I learn and enjoy doing. There are two purposes of this blog. First is to serve as a personal journal of things I do, so that I can refer them later in case I forget. Second is to help other people, so that they do not have to struggle the same way I did.</p>

<p style='text-align: justify;'>“My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute.”

-												Initial commit for blog migration to Hakyll

Never gave a damn about jekyll/ruby except to use it for github pages.
Now use Hakyll/Haskell and migrate from jekyll/ruby.
