hello, filesystem

This site is organised like a small filesystem, because that’s roughly how it lives in my head: a few directories, some files, and a text editor.

/
├── about          the human version
├── projects/      problem, approach, failures, results
├── notes/         ← you are here
├── now
├── drawings/
├── interests
└── links

Notes are what this folder is for. I wanted somewhere to put the things that usually end up in a private notebook or scattered across chats: technical notes, half-formed mathematical ideas, postmortems from competitions (especially the ones where the interesting part was being wrong), reading notes, and investigations into things nobody asked me to investigate.

rules I’m trying to follow

1. Notes can be unfinished. Each one has a status line, so you know what you’re getting.
2. Dates are real. If I change my mind, I add an update instead of quietly rewriting history.
3. Failures count as results.
4. No “10 things every AI engineer should know.”
