Conway's Game of Life
An interactive cellular automaton where simple rules create complex, emergent behavior.
Writing
Thoughts on design, development, AI infrastructure, and building products.
Rule 110 Turing Completeness: Interactive 2026 Reference
Use Wolfram for formal notation; use Blake's reference to run Rule 110, test 8 neighborhoods, and see why it is Turing complete.
PRD-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.
AI DevelopmentDecision Timing: The 15x Cost of a Bad Database Choice
I measured the cost of a database decision across three systems. Migration cost grew 15x in three years. A framework for when to decide fast vs slow.
Systems & ProductivityStartup Validation Stack: What 12 Projects Taught Me
I validated 12 projects in 9 months. Some followed the framework. Some skipped steps. The difference in outcomes taught me which evidence actually matters.
Career & GrowthDesign 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 & UX16 Design Case Studies: Four Patterns I Adopted
After studying 16 products in depth, four cross-cutting patterns changed how I build interfaces. Here's what I learned and what I stole.
Design & UXHamming Codes: How Computers Catch Their Own Mistakes
Every time you use RAM, read a QR code, or receive data from space, Hamming codes fix errors. An interactive exploration of self-correcting math.
Interactive ExplorationsFrom 76 to 100: Achieving a Perfect Lighthouse Score
A FastAPI site went from Lighthouse 76 with 0.493 CLS to perfect 100/100/100/100. The fix: critical CSS extraction, a CSS variable bug, and async loading.
