The engineering log, in your inbox.
I write on this site about how products get built, what fails, and what sticks. The newsletter is the same voice—one short issue a week if you ship backends, smart contracts, or data pipelines and want notes without the hype cycle.
I only use your address for this list—no spam, one-click unsubscribe. Every Tuesday.
Field notes, not trends
Constraints, trade-offs, and what I'd do differently next—tied to the same threads as the engineering log.
Built for builders
Framing you can use, not recycled buzzwords. Prefer RSS? Use the feed instead.
What you'll see in the log
Systems in production
Postmortems, patterns, and trade-offs from distributed systems—what broke, what scaled, and why.
Performance, practically
Caches, hot paths, and measured wins—when micro-optimisation pays off and when it does not.
Web3 & distributed state
Protocols, consensus, and running systems where trust and availability both matter.
