My name is Pranoy Dutta (prydt) and I am a student at The University of Texas at Austin, dual majoring in computer science and Plan II Honors.

I am interested in

• distributed systems
• formal verification
• storage technologies
• philosophy of science, ethics, and language
• the effects of surveillance on society

I write my thoughts on a blog.

research interests 📚

I am currently working with Dr. Vijay Chidambaram on making it easier to verify distributed systems using PL theory and formal verification.
