Hi, I'm Paul.

I'm a Computer Engineering student at RWTH Aachen and a software engineer, into embedded systems, wireless communication, and signal processing. This site is where I write down answers to technical questions I keep coming back to - in my own words, from my own head (though, yes, I use LLMs to polish the articles). I try to always introduce the concepts, I write about high-level and then going into the details, requiring little to no background knowledge. More about me →
