(Holloway) Chew, Kean Ho's Archives

Welcome! Welcome! Please feel free to procure my various products & merchandises here. My domain covers:

• tech hardware & software products and services
• digital graphics, soundtracks, & video editing
• independent academic research services
• and more!

Cheers & let's get connected!

Software

All standalone & "Ready To Deploy" tech merchandise for personal and commercial uses.

• Actualizer - A semi-automatic Debian OS builder for a very diet (smallest size possible) upstream compliant operating system. BSD-0 open source licensed.
• AutomataCI - A semi-autonomous, decentralized, and redistributable CI infrastructure readily available for any new project - Your own your infrastructure. `chewkeanho-permissive' source available licensed.
• Kastelo - A UNIX operating system security package designed for hardening any given endpoint using castle strategy. Debian OS is first-class customer. chewkeanho-proprietary licensed.
• QVMS - No non-sense QEMU control UI surface for advanced hardware emulations. Heavily used for full sandbox isolation, hardware-software hard disk imaging, hardware-software time travel/freezing, quick restoration, digital forensic & testing, and virtualization use cases. chewkeanho-proprietary licensed.
• Upscaler - Upscale image and video with any of your local computing devices. No special kidney selling hardware needed. BSD-3 open source licensed.

Retired or Superseded

These are my retired projects mainly archived for educational purposes only (e.g. code analysis and etc).

• WinSteward - An app for packaging Windows OS with organizational configurations without engaging piracy.
• PolygotScripts - An open source research efforts for unifying all Operating Systems' shell/batch scripts into 1 single startpoint. Very useful for single trigger documentation and shell + batch scripts unification.

Libraries

My super libraries focusing on providing highest consistencies across multiple selected programming languages for stability and cross platform usability. These libraries were written from scratch with 3 solid purposes:

1. Make sure cross-compilation across platforms and architectures can be done from anywhere to anywhere.
2. Make sure the algorithm is the same across multiple programming languages.
3. Make sure the libraries are decentralized, re-distributable, and its supply chain unaffected by geo-political shenanigans or a single business unit opression.

WHY HESTIA?

Like the mythology, I just want a peaceful library free from all the software industry's drama and friendly to others.

We rarely heard about Hestia (or Vesta) among the Olympus stories and dramas but she's there taking care everyone, steadily, and quietly. She is there making sure there's always a place to take rest and have warmth regardless who they are, what they are, or what they been through.

Layer-0 Libraries (Critical & Independent)

• HestiaKERNEL - Provides critical and foundational data structures for all other libraries. Among them are:
  • HestiaBOOLEANS - the bit-level boolean data type.
  • HestiaFS - the filesystem control data type.
  • HestiaLISTS - the common array and key-value list data type.
  • HestiaNUMBERS - the real number data type.
  • HestiaSIGNALS - the inter-process signals definitions.
  • HestiaSTRINGS - the Unicode-based string data type.
  • HestiaOS - the operating system control data type.
  • HestiaUNICODES - the Unicode data type.

Layer-1 Libraries (Depends on Layer-0 only)

• HestiaLOCALES - the internationalization data type.
• HestiaAIS - the general AI data type.
• HestiaTOMLS - the TOML string encoding data type.

Graphic & Media Design

Here are some of my graphic & media projects using Open Source development pipelines as the production backbones:

• Logo - My Chew, Kean Ho natural trademark branding & identity representation as a registered business person & as personal individual. It covers digital & web usages, motion media, all the way to monochrome stamping.
• Soundtracks - Musics developed for applications & leisure enjoyments.

Legal & Licenses

My legal documents and licenses deployed across all my ventures. These documents are specifically architectured for continuous updates and upgrades adapting to society changes. It is an in-depth research project from a lot of open and closed source licenses designed for easy productization beyond software products. It is constructed to suit both business and personal ventures.

Re-written from scratch, these documents use plain english for anyone to parse easily without a specialized lawyer (DISCLAIMER: I still high recommend you get one. You cannot skip this).

WHY PREFIX MY NAME?

For identification scoping and purposes only - I can't claim the generic wording like permissive worldwide solely just for me. By prefixing, I scope them down to my version of permissive. It makes the communication crips and clear.

Actively Stewarding

• chewkeanho-agreement-model-release
  • for releasing models (e.g. people, pets, assets) inside a publishable content (e.g. image, video, audio, etc).
