In a quiet corner of rural Japan, I've long lived a life surrounded by gardening, fishing, my beloved cats, and, of course, programming.
However, in 2024, my family was unexpectedly struck by illness, leading to a significant emergency expenditure of 2,000,000 JPY for treatment. Fortunately, the surgery was successful, and recovery is progressing well. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Japan's universal health care system. I also profoundly respect the professionalism and dedication of the medical staff who spotted a subtle anomaly in an X-ray.
The financial burden this illness brought is still heavy on our household. Until recently, I was much like Near from 'Death Note,' detached from society, solely pursuing my savant-like programming abilities. But this experience has profoundly changed me. I've become determined to use my unique skills to protect my precious family's livelihood.
If I possess anything that stands out from the average, it is undoubtedly my programming skills and the time I can dedicate to them. Contributing to the open-source community, from which I've received immense benefits over the years, has long been a personal aspiration.
As a first step, I developed diffx. Now, I'm also working on projects like diffai and lawkit. These are all crystallizations of ideas that have naturally emerged in my mind.
If you find value in the ideas I bring to life, I would be deeply grateful for your warm donations to help me stably continue these activities.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading this far. And please, for your own sake, remember to get regular health check-ups.
