What fails silently
A lost recording, a memory bug, and a week spent staring at the seams where systems stop telling the truth.
Letters
Dispatches, when they earn it
Information Beings is where I write between essays: what shipped, what broke, and what changed my mind. New letters arrive by email and stay readable here.
Lessons from production
What I learned building products, operating infrastructure, and running research experiments.
Field notes first
First-hand experiments with agents, voice products, and infrastructure — often before they reach the blog.
No fixed schedule
No drip campaign. You hear from me only when the idea is worth your attention span.

Recursion, resistance, and a demand curve nobody asked for
Four posts this week: attachment as a system, founders as shamans, money as recursion, and DMCA notices as market data.
Discovery, jurisdiction, and three signals from the frontier
hfpaper, context jurisdiction, and the stack quietly breaking into specialist primitives: search, voice, memory.
Seven posts, one protocol, and a pattern I can't unsee
The most productive writing week since the blog started. MCP vs CLI, unnamed categories, memory architecture, and the essay I've been carrying for three years.

SkDD, the plumber, the harness — and the problem that shows up after you ship all three.
Three posts, one week, and a memo from Jack
Managing agents, the burnout cascade, and Jack Dorsey cutting Block to 6K. Most I've shipped in a single week.
Late Friday: the overhead, the throttle, and a machine that ships
It's Friday at 11pm and I almost didn't send anything. There's no schedule here (yet). I'm practicing something simpler: shipping when there's signal.
The Overhead
I recorded a voice note while cooking dinner. By the time the onions were done, the feature existed.

A year-opening letter from the other side of the threshold
Dispatch: The Week Reality Wrote Back
Hypersigils manifest. Gen Z becomes an information being. Interfaces disappear. Reality writes back hard.
Chronicle: The Temporal Revolution
Frame density beats clock time. Bedrock skills beat abstractions. The revolution always starts at the edges.
