Studio

Every serious reading session changes the reader's index, not just their memory. Designing for that changes what a reader should store.

An archive that never forgets becomes a debt. I want notes that fade unless they are touched.

Every note-taking app eventually becomes the thing you are managing. Plain files, explicit links and one boring index outlast all of them.

Simulators hide the part worth learning. Drawing circuits by hand for a week made the entanglement bookkeeping obvious in a way the library never did.

A single-file editor for drafting small circuits, built to stay readable and repairable by one person. No build step, no dependencies.

When inference is cheap, the scarce resource stops being compute and becomes the reader's willingness to read the output.

Collected margin notes from a year of reading, edited into a short volume. The editing was harder than the reading.

An essay on why text files keep outcompeting richer formats for personal work, and where that argument genuinely fails.

A local pipeline that indexes my notes and answers questions without leaving the machine. Slower, and worth it.

A reader that shows you nothing new until you have finished what you asked for yesterday.

A printed collection of one hundred notes from this site, set in one weekend and posted to fifty people.
