Hello, World
First post on the new site. A brief introduction and what to expect.
Welcome to the new site. After years of saying I'd build a new personal website, here it is. Built with Next.js, Tailwind, and a design system borrowed from another project of mine.The design borrows heavily from the N3ONVOID aesthetic – dark backgrounds, neon accents, and a bit of glitch energy.
Why Now?
I've been writing code for a long time, but I've rarely written about it, or even made my repos public. That changes now. I want a place to share thoughts on software engineering, systems design, and the occasional deep dive into something interesting.
What to Expect
Posts here will cover:
- AI and CodeGen - Constrained generation, diffusion language models
- Systems programming - Rust, performance, and low-level details
- Distributed systems - Consistency, consensus, and the hard problems
- Developer tools - Building things that help build other things
- Learning in public - Notes and explorations as I dig into new topics
The frequency will be irregular. Quality over quantity.
The Stack
This site is intentionally simple:
- Next.js for the framework
- Tailwind for styling
- MDX for blog posts
No analytics. No tracking. No comments (for now). Just content.
