Thinking through leadership, AI, and product management, with the occasional detour.
The bar for building has collapsed. Anyone with an AI assistant can produce a prototype. The challenge is hiring people who can tell whether what was built is right — and that is a different hire than the one most managers have been trained to make.
Velocity is up. Lead time is down. And you have no idea whether your team is getting better at what matters. Here is how to measure judgment in an AI-accelerated organization.
The grunt work is gone. The teaching surface is gone with it. Here is what it takes to grow engineers deliberately in a world where the system no longer does it automatically.
Why the people learning to code today are missing the lessons that used to be unavoidable.
AI-generated code compiles, solves the visible task, and still carries hidden assumptions, unsafe patterns, and security debt. Here is what senior engineers hold that the model cannot infer.
Visibility is the floor, not the ceiling. You can have complete observability and still have no governance, because governance is not the act of seeing. It is the act of deciding, and making someone accountable for the decision.
A judgment support system that reads your signals every night and tells you what actually matters in the morning.
An open-source, AI-powered solo text adventure inspired by D&D 5e. You lead a party of four through a procedurally generated fantasy world, guided by an AI Dungeon Master.
A lightweight CV-to-role matcher that experiments with pragmatic AI + MLOps patterns.
Transform any image into a unique audio composition — translating color, contrast, and structure into sound.
A visual experiment turning Conway’s Game of Life into a colorful 3D simulation.
A tiny arcade style browser game where you pilot a ship, fight space spiders, and collect gold coins.
