Mastery over Hype

A few times a month, when I have something worth sharing, I digest my notes into an email. The kind I'd like to receive from a fellow developer. Not a content funnel.

I write about Python, Rust, and AI, with a focus on deep work over shallow trends.

What I write about

  • What I'm building, learning, and shipping in Python, Rust, and AI
  • Short essays on judgment and craft
  • Honest takes on AI tooling: what's actually useful, what's hype
  • Quotes from books I'm reading (Fowler, Uncle Bob, Ousterhout, Cal Newport)
  • Lessons from developer coaching and code review: what separates code that lasts from code that merely runs
  • An open invite to reply with what's on your mind: questions, pushback, ideas

Want to read one first? Start with Thinking is the moat: why judgment, not prompting speed, is the edge that compounds. Or browse the full archive.
