About
I'm a solo founder building software — the kind that used to require a team. LLMs are my engineering partners. Figuring out what it actually takes to make that work, and writing about it publicly as it develops, is what this site is mostly about now.
The process is the subject. Not "how to get AI to write more code" but what disciplines make LLM-assisted engineering produce something real rather than something that merely compiles. I'm learning this from the inside, with real codebases and real stakes, and the devlog is the record.
The essays are a separate mode. I think about systems, economics, identity — the structural logic underneath things.
Armchair philosopher. Armchair economist. Increasingly less armchair engineer.
