I make software.
AGPL3+ whenever I can get away with it.
Software is my art and craft,
it is entangled with my identity,

I love my craft; I loathe my industry.

Entries prefixed “blog” are messy stream-of-consciousness over-sharing that probably isn’t interesting or relevant to anybody. anything that’s good and/or useful, I intend to work up into its own non-“blog” article.
Entries prefixed “(wip)” are notes, hypotheses, unfinished ideas, rough drafts, etc. I mean really rough: I’ll often return to some notes for revision to find that the sentiment they convey is completely at odds with what I was trying to say in the first place. I might not even believe the things I was exploring in writing at that time. Some might even contain unfinished sentences that just
The rest are “articles,” I suppose, but it’s not like anything here has more than a modicum of revision and polish.
