I make software.
AGPL3+ whenever I can get away with it.
Software is my art and craft,
it is entangled with my identity,
and I would call it my passion
if it weren’t also my day job.
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.
