Every data silo follows the same architecture: domain files as ground truth, SQLite + FTS5 as a read-only cache, MCP as the query interface. After building five of these, the pattern is clear.
narro can now generate audio narration for Hugo blog posts, with synchronized sentence highlighting in the browser. The alignment problem turned out to be more interesting than expected.
A walkthrough of Chartfold, a Python tool that loads your medical records into SQLite and exposes them to Claude via MCP for structured analysis, visit prep, and ad-hoc queries.
The problem isn't too much code. It's code without purpose.
dapple is a terminal graphics library with one Canvas API, seven pluggable renderers, and eleven CLI tools for displaying images, data, video, math, and more.
A walkthrough of Posthumous, a self-hosted dead man's switch that monitors periodic check-ins via TOTP, progresses through escalating alert stages, and triggers automated actions if you stop responding.
pagevault turns any file into a self-contained encrypted HTML page. No backend, no JavaScript libraries, no external dependencies. Just AES-256-GCM and the browser's built-in Web Crypto API. The interesting part is making it work at scale.
My R package for hypothesis testing, hypothesize, is now available on CRAN.
How I turned scattered data managers into navigable systems using virtual filesystems and POSIX commands.
On building comprehensive open source software as value imprinting at scale, reproducible science, and leaving intellectual legacy under terminal constraints.
I'm building R packages for reliability analysis, not just using other people's. R's strengths for statistical computing are real, and building packages forces you to understand the theory.
Code is a scientific artifact. If you don't publish it, you're hiding your methodology.
