I'm a student, and am looking for a good internship experience in the first half of 2024. I am currently a Google Summer of Code contributor at the Tor Project, and have contributed to Arti, the Rust rewrite of Tor in C, working beside the Arti devs.
I'm particularly interested in open source, computer networking and associated software. A while back I hacked around and built a peer to peer file transfer program to learn Rust, including the file transfer protocol too (you can check it out on https://github.com/gotlougit/p2p-file-transfer or on https://git.sr.ht/~gotlou/p2p-file-transfer). I did this mostly being inspired by Tailscale and also out of frustration of how getting uncompressed photos from friends was a mess.
I love learning new things and am a fast learner. Currently I am writing (and using!) a more secure, drop-in SSH agent replacement (at https://git.sr.ht/~gotlou/sshield or https://github.com/gotlougit/sshield) which encrypts SSH keys and unlocks them with a master password, with planned features including using Linux sandboxing mechanisms such as Landlock or seccomp-bpf to make the agent process less prone to RCEs.
This is amazing news, and I've found that thanks to Proton patches being upstreamed by Valve and CodeWeavers, not to mention the Wine community, that games that run on Proton tend to run using vanilla Wine as well, thus improving compatibility for Wine in general!
I post tech-related stuff, mostly just about projects I've built and more recently open source contributions under GSoC. The templating system to publish posts is very basic and custom, I wrote it in Python a couple years ago and never looked back.
I also appreciate some other tech, like using MicroG or Tailscale.
I've come across your platform before while trying to find a suitable place to host a backend for a project I'd built a while back as a team project (written in Rust, using Postgres as the database, you can check it out at https://github.com/vaidhya-web/backend)
By any chance, would you be open to a remote internship? I already have prior knowledge of Rust and am currently a GSoC contributor this year, also in a Rust project.

I love learning new things and am a fast learner. Recently I migrated to NixOS, and quickly ended up configuring a tmpfs rootfs so I could manage the state of my system better.
