Moving my writing home
For a long time my public writing has lived on HackMD. It was pragmatic. Decent editor, cheap, frictionless, a place to press publish without spinning up infrastructure.
It served the essays I wanted to publish then. It doesn't serve the essays I want to write next.
So I'm moving the writing home.
Why the move
A handful of reasons, none of them urgent on their own.
- Ownership of the voice. The writing should feel like it belongs to the same place as the code. A long essay on verifiable AI and a repository implementing the paper behind it should sit one click apart, under the same roof, in the same typography.
- Less noise, more signal. On HackMD, the page chrome is working against the text. Here, the page can get out of the way.
- Room to evolve. A personal site is a long-running artifact. If what I write shifts, the substrate can shift with it, without breaking a dozen external links.
What this section is
These are ramblings. The word is chosen on purpose. A place to think in public, with less ceremony than a post and more care than a tweet.
What you can expect:
- Essays on verifiable AI, the agentic era, and the trust primitives the current stack is quietly missing.
- Technical notes on things I am actively building. ML paper reimplementations, cryptographic primitives, agent harness engineering.
- Arguments that sit uncomfortably between research, policy, and engineering. That intersection is where most of the interesting work is.
Some pieces currently on HackMD will move here over time, tightened as they move. Others will stay there as artifacts. The links on the homepage still point to them.
A note on scope
The writing stays honest about its scope. I don't have a grand theory of everything. I have a few load-bearing priors and a handful of things I'm trying to figure out. The good essays tend to come from the second pile.
If you're here from elsewhere, thanks for reading. More soon.
