Nate's Tech Stuff

curious about how stuff works

MeetNate.

Hey, I'm Nate. I can happily lose an afternoon figuring out how something works, trying out an idea, or making a little thing of my own.

Projects Ideas I'm exploring
TECH
I like finding out how stuff works
SCIENCE
I've always got another question
RIGHT NOW
learning as I go

new · website design

Need a website for your business?

I build custom websites for businesses anywhere in the US. $150, a preview in a day or two, and you only pay once it's live.

See how it works

Things I like getting into

a few of my favorite rabbit holes

  1. 01
    make

    Coding

    I like turning an idea into code, then tweaking it until it does what I had in mind.

  2. 02
    under the hood

    Computers & hardware

    I'm curious about what's inside a computer and how all the parts work together.

  3. 03
    what's next

    AI & new technology

    I'm interested in how new tech works and the useful, creative things people can do with it.

  4. 04
    make it move

    Robotics & electronics

    It's cool when code can interact with the real world through sensors, circuits, or robots.

  5. 05
    stay curious

    Science

    I ask a lot of questions and enjoy learning why the world works the way it does.

  6. 06
    play

    Game development

    Games bring together code, design, and problem-solving, which is a pretty fun combination.

  7. 07
    think ahead

    Cybersecurity

    I like learning how people keep their devices, accounts, and information secure.

  8. 08
    figure it out

    Problem-solving

    If something isn't working, I enjoy poking at it until I understand what's going on.

On my bench

a few things I'd like to try

  • Try out new tools

    I like testing new software and seeing what I can make with it.

    SOMETIME SOON

  • Make a useful little tool

    If I spot a small annoyance, maybe I can code a fix for it.

    NEXT UP

  • Mix science and tech

    I'd love to make something that helps me explore both at the same time.

    ON MY MIND

  • Keep following ideas

    There's always something new I want to try. I'll share the interesting ones here.
