Color Science for Interfaces: Building a Zero-Color Site
I built a site with no colors — just white on absolute black with four opacity layers. Here's the color science that made the decision work.
Design & UXWriting
Thoughts on design, development, AI infrastructure, and building products.
Context Window Management: 50 Sessions of Data
I measured token consumption across 50 Claude Code sessions. Context exhaustion degrades output before you notice. Here are the patterns that fix it.
AI DevelopmentDesign Careers That Survive AI: Judgment Over Tools
After 12 years as VP of Product Design, I watched three paradigm shifts. The skills that survived every one are the same skills AI can't replace.
Design & UXVibe Coding vs. Engineering: Where I Draw the Line
I use Claude Code daily with 86 hooks and a full quality gate system. Here's where I vibe code, where I engineer, and why the boundary matters.
AI & TechnologyCritical Yet Kind: Feedback Principles Encoded in 86 Hooks
Google's Project Aristotle found psychological safety predicts team performance. I encoded the same principles into automated code review hooks.
Career & GrowthClaude Code Hooks: Why Each of My 95 Hooks Exists
I built 95 hooks for Claude Code. Each one exists because something went wrong. Here are the origin stories and the architecture that emerged.
AI DevelopmentDesign Systems for Startups: How I Built Mine Backwards
I built my design system backwards: tokens first, components never. A CLS bug taught me the cost of skipping tokens. I stopped debating when to invest.
Design & UXClaude Code + Cursor: 30 Sessions of Combined Use
I tracked 30 development sessions using Claude Code and Cursor together. The data shows where each tool wins and where the combination fails.
AI DevelopmentAI Theater: Why Only 23% of Companies Create Real Value
McKinsey found 90% of companies claim AI adoption but only 23% scale beyond pilots. I've witnessed three flavors of AI theater and practiced one myself.
AI & TechnologyLLM Tokenization: Why Korean Costs 2.8x More Than English
Translating my site into 6 languages revealed that Korean costs 2.8x more tokens than English for identical content. An interactive visualizer shows why.
AI & TechnologyType Scales: How I Chose 13 Steps and Why the Ratio Matters
My site uses a 13-step type scale from 12px to 80px. How I chose the ratio, why system fonts outperform custom fonts, and what the squint test reveals.
Design & UXPRD-Driven Development: How I Use 30+ PRDs to Ship with AI Agents
I've written 30+ PRDs for AI agent tasks. Here's where PRD-driven development works, where it fails, and how my template evolved over 6 months.
