Engineering Philosophy: Sophie Wilson
Sophie Wilson designed the ARM instruction set -- now in nearly every phone on Earth -- with a tiny team and a ruthless RISC efficiency that made low power almost an accident.
Engineering & CraftWriting
Thoughts on design, development, AI infrastructure, and building products.
Engineering Philosophy: Yann LeCun, Learning the World, Openly
Yann LeCun built deep vision on convolution, then bet that real intelligence comes from learning the world unsupervised and publishing it openly -- not bigger LLMs.
Engineering & CraftApple's Translation Framework: Free, On-Device, and Sharper Than It Looks
Apple's Translation framework: free on-device translation via translationPresentation and TranslationSession, plus the offline-download edges demos skip.
AI & TechnologyEngineering Philosophy: Geoffrey Hinton, Conviction Over Fashion
Geoffrey Hinton bet on brain-like neural networks through two AI winters when the field mocked them -- conviction over fashion, intuition over formalism.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Leslie Lamport, Think Before You Code
Leslie Lamport made distributed systems a science: time is not global, causality is what is real, and you specify the design before you write the code.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Grace Hopper, Make the Computer Speak Human
Grace Hopper built the first compiler so programs could be written in human language, made latency physical with a nanosecond wire, and fought stale dogma.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Bjarne Stroustrup, Abstraction Without Overhead
Bjarne Stroustrup built C++ on the zero-overhead principle: never choose between expressive code and bare-metal speed. A good abstraction costs nothing.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Guido van Rossum, Readability Counts
Guido van Rossum built Python on one bet: code is read far more often than it is written, so the language itself should optimize for the human reading it.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Alan Kay, The Big Idea Is Messaging
Alan Kay invented the future by changing the point of view: computing as a medium for thought, with systems built from objects communicating by messages.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Donald Knuth, Programming Is an Art
Donald Knuth treats programming as an art written to be read by humans. Measure before you cut, optimize only the critical 3%, and prove correctness with craft.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Edsger Dijkstra, Elegance Is Not Optional
Edsger Dijkstra treated simplicity as the precondition for correctness and proof as superior to testing -- elegance was not optional but the whole discipline.
Engineering & CraftEngineering Philosophy: Tim Berners-Lee, This Is for Everyone
Tim Berners-Lee invented the web and gave it away: universality and permissionless decentralization -- anyone, anywhere can publish and link without asking.
