hello, world

I write everything down. Between a memory I can’t trust, ADHD, and OCD, writing things down isn’t a habit for me. It’s a necessity. Over the years those notes grew into a second brain, and the people who read them kept telling me they got real value out of them. So I’m opening it up to everyone.

Two rules run this place.

Rule #1: Write everything down

If it isn’t written down, it didn’t happen. Every bug I chase, every technique I learn, and every rabbit hole I fall into ends up in my notes. The posts here are those notes, cleaned up and shared, so that you don’t have to start from scratch (and neither does future me).

Rule #2: Explain it like I’m five

There’s an idea often credited to physicist Richard Feynman: if you can’t explain something simply, you don’t really understand it. I hold every post to that standard. Each one starts from the ground up, basics first, and climbs one step at a time.

You won’t need to Google a term or ask an AI what something means halfway through. Everything you need is right here, from zero to hero.

Welcome to my second brain. Let’s dig in.
