I’m a web developer and visual creative. When I’m not pushing pixels or pecking at code, I enjoy hot chocolate, video games, and fantasy novels.
I’m trying to get authentication to work with CAS on a NextJS application. Google has failed me. I know this is a long shot, but does anyone know how to do this? I’m working with our IT department that runs the CAS setup now, but it’s slow going since they don’t know much about React / Node

The start of the year has been pretty rough, so I’ve fallen behind on my usual updates. But I’m working on something kind of cool to share in a blog post, and I’m also looking into rebuilding my site with Hugo

Winter break is over and it’s back to work. The first few weeks back are always so busy and disorienting. But I’m starting to find the rhythm again

I finally got around to writing a piece on imposter syndrome. It was only in my drafts for over 5 years lol

On Imposter Syndrome
Imposter syndrome is something I imagine almost everyone working in creative fields has felt. It's a psychological phenomena where one thinks themselves as an imposter - that they don't really fit in....

I’ve recently taken a bigger interest in computer science beyond web dev. Don’t get me wrong, I love developing for the web and still derive a lot of joy out of it, but it’s also like a gateway into the world of “ok, what else can I do with tech?”

Guess who just used recursion for the first time! And I didn’t cause a memory overflow!

I remember this being very hard to wrap my head around when I first learned about it years ago. I’m quite proud of myself now haha

Anyway, my PR is being peer reviewed, wish me luck

Git has become a more popular topic of conversation in our team as more of them start using it to help our devs test releases.

I decided to cover my aliases in a blog post since the folks on our team enjoyed learning about them

Been trying out bsky with my furry alt @arenliore.com and decided to make one for my real self!

I’ve recently made a bunch of improvements to my personal website and have inspiration for the first time in a long long time

Maybe I’ll post here often in parallel to my website
