What are you working on?
AI and the future
I want to understand the AI transition.
Start with the AGI and Household Resilience series. It covers timelines, work, money, housing, children, community, and the practical choices a household can make before certainty arrives.
Personal AI
I want to build a better AI workflow.
Start with the project record. The updates show how memory, agents, automation, video production, local tools, failure recovery, and human review are assembled in practice.
Financial decisions
I want to make a better financial plan.
Start with Financial Independence and the Wealth articles. The emphasis is on assumptions, scenarios, tradeoffs, and decisions that remain useful when forecasts are wrong.
Working artifacts
I want to see what has actually been built.
Visit Projects for the result, the evidence, the limits, and the next decision. Visit Tools & Apps when you want to use something directly.
Just browsing
I want to look around.
Read the latest field note, then follow the links that feel relevant. There is no required path.
The working method
How the work moves from idea to evidence.
01
Start with a consequential question.
Begin with a recurring friction point, decision, or uncertainty rather than a technology looking for a use.
02
Make the smallest useful version.
Use AI to move quickly from idea to artifact while keeping constraints and acceptance criteria visible.
03
Test the result against reality.
Keep the evidence, including the failure, and update the next decision instead of protecting the original plan.
