I have spent years building software and forming opinions about how it should be built. Most of that thinking lived in chat threads and pull request reviews. This blog is where it goes now.

## What to expect

- **Engineering.** Notes from the work: systems, trade-offs, and the mistakes worth writing down.
- **Opinions.** On tech, on work, and occasionally on politics. Posts are tagged, so you can pick what to read.
- **Anything else.** If it is worth a page, it will show up here.

## How to follow

Every post is available as HTML and as plain markdown: append `.md` to a post URL, or request the page with `Accept: text/markdown`. There are RSS, Atom and JSON feeds, and an `llms.txt` index for agents.
