Leo Driesch
Somewhere between software and alchemy.
Software developer based in Munich. I started coding as a kid from my mother's HTML book, built my first paid app in high school, and never stopped. Currently pursuing a Master's in Computer Science at TUM, focusing on machine learning. By day I write Angular at Rohde & Schwarz, by night I explore what's possible with AI.

- Why PauseMay 12, 2023On taking a break after finishing something great, and why you appreciate your work more when you step away from it.
- Taste over SkillMarch 14, 2023As creative tools get better, technical skill matters less. What remains is taste - the ability to know a good idea when you see one.
