Every piece I've published — 239 essays, field notes, and dispatches.
The AI wave is real and AGI may already be here — but enterprise trust in frontier labs is fracturing. A builder's tour of Sequoia's computation revolution, Karp's sovereignty warning, and the open-source path forward.
A family trip through Rome, Naples, and Copenhagen — the Sistine Chapel, the Pantheon, and Tivoli Gardens — becomes a lesson in what we build and what we leave behind.
From the 1956 workshop where AI was named to the 2026 reckoning in software and labor — why computer science still matters, Jevons paradox expands the field, and everyone must transform.
After almost twenty years on WordPress.com, Memory Leak moves to a site built for SEO, AEO, and GEO — with agents as first-class citizens and an agentic development lifecycle behind the rebuild.
I was sitting in my dorm room at the University of Richmond — beige tower PC humming like it had something important to prove, CRT monitor warming the room,…

If the last decade was defined by the rise of the software-defined enterprise, this next one will be shaped by the emergence of the AI-defined organization.…
Every company is now a technology company — a phrase first popularized by tech visionaries like Marc Andreessen in his 2011 essay Software Is Eating the World…
For decades, the holy grail of artificial intelligence was simple: fool a human into believing they were talking to another human. That was the essence of the…
I still remember the feeling—the mix of excitement and terror—as I packed the last box into a U-Haul after college. Two buddies of mine drove with me across…
