About

I'm Eduardo Kohn, a Computer Science undergraduate with a growing focus on the mathematical foundations of computing and Cybersecurity. I'm more interested in understanding why things work than in shipping features — from the linear algebra behind a model to the cryptography underpinning a protocol.

Within Cybersecurity, the area that most motivates me — and that I plan to start studying soon — is Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS): the intersection of computing, networking, and physical processes that underlies critical infrastructure like power grids, industrial control systems, medical devices, IoT, and autonomous vehicles. When a vulnerability crosses from digital into physical, the consequences stop being abstract — and that technical responsibility is exactly what draws me in.

I'm also an active contributor to the Phoenix framework (Elixir), where I've learned in practice what it takes to design concurrent, fault-tolerant systems built on serious theoretical foundations (OTP, supervision trees, message passing). Working on an open source project at that scale has been my main engineering school.

This blog is where I think in public. Papers are longer pieces written with scientific rigour — abstracts, citations, theorems, proofs. Posts are shorter notes that share an idea before it is finished enough to formalise.

Professionally, I've worked with frontend since 2016 (React, React Native, TypeScript, Design Systems) and as a fullstack engineer since 2021, adding backend in Java/Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, Docker/Kubernetes, Keycloak, and automated testing. That foundation gives me solid ground to explore deeper, more theoretical problems from here on.
