Senior/Principal Software Engineer | Former Technical Co-Founder | 10+ Years Experience

High-agency engineer with a background in Physiology and Computer Science. I specialize in building high-integrity systems (Fintech, Health-tech) and scaling early-stage startups from 0→1.

Founder DNA: Built and exited a profitable EdTech SaaS (Futurist Academy) as the sole engineer. Comfortable owning the entire product lifecycle from Supabase schema design to Next.js/Svelte frontend polish.

Fintech & Rigor: Former Team Lead at U.S. Bank. Architected secure transaction layers and mission-critical ledgers where ACID compliance and idempotency were non-negotiable.

AI-Native: Currently leading a team at FairwAI building Agentic AI workflows and RAG pipelines. I leverage LLMs as a productivity multiplier to build robust, traceable systems.

High-Throughput Systems: Experience building real-time IoT telemetry pipelines (TSI) and longitudinal data reporting for millions of users (Infinite Campus).

I thrive in small, fast-moving teams that value craft, mechanical sympathy, and shipping fast without breaking things. Looking for Senior or Principal roles where I can have a direct impact on business velocity.

Coming from a social scene in which I'm involved in modding and deconstructing video games, this behavior was immediately apparent to me. It's the same contrived story that cheaters use to explain why they really really need a feature that gives them an advantage over other players in online games.

The story itself being true or not doesn't really matter - they're weaponizing an appeal to emotion by using a disabled person as a prop to violate everyone else's standards of interaction.

Nope. Rust stabilized strict provenance over a year ago. Some details about aliasing aren't tied down, but so long as you can obey the strict provenance rules you're golden today in Rust to hide flags in pointers etc.

Like a lot of things, little about this war is purely bad or purely good.

If the Iranian regime were over thrown, that would be good for basically the whole world except the people actually operating the regime. So, if the war ends without that happening, then that's at least partly a bad thing mixed in with the good of, y'know, not having a war anymore.

I've started buying "nicer" things purely for fit reasons, like I've realized that I'm a lean 6' guy with a long torso, so for shirts and especially sweaters a medium is too short and a large is too baggy— the correct size for me in off-the-rack items is a tall medium, and that's definitely not available everywhere.

So I'm extremely happy with a Land's End quarter zip that I picked up recently, and I hope that's a well-made piece that will last a while, but overall I completely agree that mass-produced clothing is a market for lemons; no one can tell what the good stuff is, so it's all assumed to be garbage and priced accordingly.

OK, it's a feature not a bug. It's your project, so it's totally fine for me if you like it.

Quaternions break down for other situations. They cannot represent a rotation greater than 360 degrees. In an engine like Unity (which stores rotation as quats), you can use arbitrary Euler angles in the editor and it will work fine, but the scene file has to store 2 things. There is an additional m_LocalEulerAnglesHint property that covers this edge case.

The concern here seems to be that the credit risk on the underlying borrowers is being transferred to banks through the loans made by the banks to the private credit firms. But the banks' lending to the private credit firms is subject to the same regulations and constraints as their lending to other borrowers (the same regulations and constraints that led them not to lend to the underlying borrowers in the first place). When banks lend to private credit funds/firms, it tends to be through senior, secured loans which will be less risky than the underlying loans.

>You say it yourself that everyone just speeds up after the camera

...because they know where it is and there are so few of them...

Humans are very good at trying to get away with things. The only way to solve speeding is for people to receive the fines, receive the points on their license. They only speed because they're selfish fucks and because it's so easy to get away with it.
Show HN: I calculated sun/shade exposure for every seat at World Cup stadiums
by dkaragas | 2026-03-12 15:46:11+00:00
Last year, I went to a game at a stadium I had never visited (Arrowhead). Ended up baking in the sun for the entire second half. Afterwards, was surprised I couldn't find a tool that told me where the sun would actually be during games.

So for WC2026 I built SeatSun: a free tool (no sign up needed) that calculates sun/shade exposure for every section at the World Cup 2026 stadiums depending on date and match time.

The technical core: solar azimuth and altitude calculations (based on Meeus astronomical algorithms, ~0.3 degree accuracy) tied to each stadium's orientation and GPS coordinates. For each open-air stadium I mapped the seating sections to compass bearings, then render an interactive overlay showing which sections are in sun vs shade at the exact match time. The sun position shifts meaningfully across a single afternoon -- a 3pm kickoff looks very different from a 6pm kickoff at the same stadium.

Covers 16 stadiums: 13 open-air with interactive sun maps, 3 indoor (AT&T, Mercedes-Benz, NRG) with appropriate notes. You can set any date and kickoff time to see the exposure for your specific game.

Would love feedback on the accuracy, especially from anyone who has been inside these stadiums and can sanity-check the section orientations. A few of the venues were harder to calibrate than others, and I haven’t yet made adjustments other than notes for partially covered stadiums (eg Hard Rock).

It is bizarre that you're "pinning" this on the Chromium engineers - who are essentially the only ones moving the web forward.

The safari feet dragging/obstruction goes far beyond PWAs. The chart on this page is one of many examples showing how consistently far behind Safari is - they've been enormously behind chrome and firefox in coverage of tests for 7+ years. https://wpt.fyi/. And here's an extremely comprehensive article on the topic https://webventures.rejh.nl/blog/2024/history-of-safari-show...

As for standards, here's another detailed series to learn from https://infrequently.org/series/effective-standards-work/. Once again, you have it all backwards. Saying "no one is giving Google enough gruff for the conflict of interest with Google Play's moats and making over-complicated standards" is not only laughable, but just dumb - Google doesn't and, in fact, can't "make standards". Standards are something that comes about through the painful diplomatic process described in those links.

Moreover, it is quite clearly an institutional decision to hold back the web, or else they would allow for other browser engines to run on iOS rather than focing them all to be skins on webkit. Again, this is all documented in extreme detail in the articles on that site. If you find it to be still somehow lacking, the author is very open to discussion on bluesky or mastodon (I'd prepare far better though, because what you've said thus far would get eviscerated).

As for MPA PWAs, there's nothing at all stopping you from serving pages from a service worker. There's plenty of valid and accessible ways to precache all the pages that a user might need while offline. Workbox (from Google!) makes it easy, but its also easy to hand-roll.

And, Microsoft most definitely has not given up on the web platform - they literally adopted and make contributions to chromium. The author of that site literally works at Microsoft now, coaching both internal and external teams on improving their use of the web, as well as contributing to standards.

I dont see any point in continuing this discussion, as you haven't shown even the slightest interest in considering how you're living in some bizarro world.

If you are actually attempting to communicate in good faith, i can't recommend strongly enough that you read that entire site. And, likewise, read and support the work of Open Web Advocacy. https://open-web-advocacy.org/

One of my peers sent me a discussion from the Council on Foreign Relations and it was a difficult listen. Within the first 5 minutes of the hour-long vid, one of the "experts" was opining that Iran had no ability to close the Strait because "all of their ships are destroyed". These DC swamp creatures are CLUELESS. As you said, I dunno how any national security professional can watch Ukraine bully the Russian Black Sea Fleet with Starlink-equipped kamikaze USVs and not understand the implications for other theatres of war. Especially involving an adversary that has rehearsed and even pioneered asymmetric capabilities for decades.

Someone else owns all the other credit. This is the 1st domino.

The liquidity challenges of a $1.2T shock to the economy is meaningful, because it has knock on effects on equity as well.

When private credit (which is propping up private valuation) falls, private equity also falls and then everyone realizes that everyone else has been swimming naked.

Two pieces of advice I keep seeing over & over in these discussions-- 1) start with a fresh/baseline context regularly, and 2) give agents unix-like tools and files which can be interacted with via simple pseudo-English commands such as bash, where they can invoke e.g. "--help" to learn how to use them.

I'm not sure adding a more formal language interface makes sense, as these models are optimized for conversational fluency. It makes more sense to me for them to be given instructions for using more formal interfaces as needed.

Not necessarily:
Money isn’t everything. Russia cannot produce electronics on its own, so only because American companies sell to shell companies that sell to Russia is Russia able to launch missiles and similar high tech weapons on Ukraine and, no, Russia has no chance in hell of winning in Ukraine with the so called (sadly but truly deeply dehumanising) “meat wave” attacks sending in soldiers with little training and just a riffle… So really oil revenues are a way to hurt Russia but not a way to cause them to lose the war, but depriving them of American technology that they need to develop the kinds of weapons that they use to attack Ukrainian cities and power stations and infrastructure probably would
Show HN: I made clawfeeds, feeds for agents
by petervandijck | 2026-03-12 15:46:50+00:00
I've always loved RSS and I long thought RSS + LLMs would make a great couple, so I built clawfeeds (apologies for the name!)

You can try it by simply asking Claude to check out https://agent.clawfeeds.com/try.md, it'll figure it out, or have a look yourself at https://clawfeeds.com

- (very) context-friendly feeds (feeds & posts separated out)
- webhook for new post notifications

It crawls RSS feeds, parses them into markdown, and gives you a very concise feed markdown file (example: https://agent.clawfeeds.com/feed/uqhb-tssd-4gk9.md), which links to markdown post files (example: https://agent.clawfeeds.com/post/cm47-5dbd-x6we.md).

The idea is 1. protect your context window, and 2. get notified of new posts at your webhook (or some other mechanism).

It's free - it doesn't eat up much resources, the markdown files live in a DO bucket. You need an account to add/follow feeds and add a webhook for your agent to be notified of new posts from feeds you follow.

I can think of a ton more features (it's kind of a feed reader for agents), but I'd love to hear what people think might be useful.

An interesting aspect has been to design this for agents first - the CTA is aimed at agents, etc.

I imagine use cases like having my agent read my favourite Substacks and summarizing things, following packages I use on Github etc. RSS is (still) everywhere. (For example this https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47337607 recent discussion)

As a hypothetical.

Let’s say instead it consolidated a few packages into 1. This might even be a good idea for security reasons.

Then it offered a mandatory 15% revenue tip to the original projects.

So far GPL enforcement usually comes down to “umm, try and sue us lol”.

How much human intervention is needed for it to be a real innovation and not llm generated. Can I someone to watch Claude do its thing and press enter 3 times ?

This is all about Hormuz, isn't it? Even though the attack itself was in Basra, Iraq, the intention seems to be to terrify any companies thinking of sailing through the Persian Gulf.

I wonder how many more caches of drones Iran has lying around. Days? Weeks? Years?

There's also the question of how to resupply any anti-drone systems in the area - maybe we'll see convoys carrying interceptors crossing the Arabian desert.

I haven't tried the newer I7i and I8g instance types (the newest instances with local storage) for myself, but AWS claims "I7i instances offer up to 45TB of NVMe storage with up to 50% better real-time storage performance, up to 50% lower storage I/O latency, and up to 60% lower storage I/O latency variability compared to I4i instances."

I benchmarked I4i at ~2GB/s read, so let's say I7i gets 3GB/s. The Verge benchmarked the NEO at 1.7GB/s read.

Of course, an application specific workload will have its own characteristics, but this has to be a win for a $700 device.

It's hard to find a comparable AWS instance, and any general comparison is meaningless because everybody is looking at different aspects of performance and convenience. The cheapest I* is $125/mo on-demand, $55/mo if you pay for three years up front, $30/mo if you can work with spot instances. i8g.large is 468GB NVMe, 16GB, 2 vCPUs (proper cores on graviton instances, Intel/AMD instance headline numbers include hyperthreading).
Show HN: Reel Rogue Update – The Invisible Feeling
by qq-niklas | 2026-03-12 15:47:23+00:00
It's been a bit over a month since last I posted about this project. I'm still having a mostly great experience using AI tools.

Even though I'm using AI tools, it isn't effortless. Since last time, most of what I have achieved is likely invisible to you as a player. And, frankly that's likely to be expected more often than not. That said, there are some noticeable nuggets for those that have tried the game.

I have added a bit more decision making for the player, adapting the Novice skill as suggested in my previous post. I've also added active skills to all classes. The list is quite a bit longer than this consisting of both smaller tweaks, fixes and complete reworks.

If you've tried the game before and enjoyed it, I hope you will enjoy it even more now. Still, far from finished but I think it is in a fairly playable state.
by antmenn | 2026-03-12 15:47:29+00:00
OP here, some anticipations: I modeled the impact of AI-assisted development on the SDLC as a non-linear dynamical system.

By calibrating an ODE (Validation Capacity) against 1.6 million file-touch events from 27 repositories, the model reveals a saddle-node bifurcation. Simply put: AI increases generation volume, but if QA interception isn't scaled proportionally, the queue saturates with rework, causing net delivery to collapse mathematically.

The paper includes the formal derivation, the empirical validation (including an operational regime classifier based on file closure rates), and the full Python replication suite.

I'd appreciate any mathematical or architectural critique on the queueing model and the filter chain formalization.

This is "falsehoods programmers believe about addresses" on steroids. Six years ago, I couldn't drive due to injuries and gave my car to my dad, who took it to California. I was pretty diligent about making sure the ownership records transferred and he registered it, but I'm imagining the state of Texas using this as a pretense to deny my ability to vote, and California deciding I owe them income taxes.

HR have always had dumb ways to filter resumes, which can unfairly reject good candidates but might not be an issue for the company as long as they find enough good candidates. Also, at least they don't waste candidates' time.

With AI interviews, not only they're wasting all the candidates times, but they're starting the relationship on the wrong foot for the candidates they'll end up hiring!

Right now, it's evading all anti-botting detectors I've tested it on. I believe it's due to the fact it runs in headful mode and I've removed all detectable CDP signatures. Input events are also simulated at a system level (typing is at 200 WPM) so it's very hard for a page's javascript to detect it's not in a human operated chrome. A lot of detection on headless happens due to the webGPU capabilities being disabled since a modern computer is very unlikely to not support those. You could also wire up one of the Heretic models as a dedicated Captcha solver, I recommend Qwen 3.5 27b Heretic! https://huggingface.co/coder3101/Qwen3.5-27B-heretic

Yes. You can self-list on fb marketplace, but you can’t list a home in the MLS listing service they all use without using a realtor - and the buyer’s agents won’t show your home or suggest it to their clients.

So yes, they are using their dominant position in the market to protect their dominant position in the market.

Weird that it still has forward-facing front seats.

I would have thought that a vehicle designed from the ground up as a self-driving taxi would have the front and rear seats facing each other, as in the back of a black cab (albeit without folding up) or in a train.

Doesn't look very accessible either. Have they actually done any market research on what people want from a dedicated taxi?
by pessimizer | 2026-03-12 15:48:44+00:00
I think your objections miss the point. My informal specs to a program are user-focused. I want to dictate what benefits the program will give to the person who is using it, which may include requirements for a transport layer, a philosophy of user interaction, or any number of things. When I know what I want out of a program, I go through the agony of translating that into a spec with database schemas, menu options, specific encryption schemes, etc., then finally I turn that into a formal spec within which whether I use an underscore or a dash somewhere becomes a thing that has to be consistent throughout the document.

You're telling me that I should be doing the agonizing parts in order for the LLM to do the routine part (transforming a description of a program into a formal description of a program.) Your list of things that "make no sense" are exactly the things that I want the LLMs to do. I want to be able to run the same spec again and see the LLM add a feature that I never expected (and wasn't in the last version run from the same spec) or modify tactics to accomplish user goals based on changes in technology or availability of new standards/vendors.

I want to see specs that move away from describing the specific functionality of programs altogether, and more into describing a usefulness or the convenience of a program that doesn't exist. I want to be able to feed the LLM requirements of what I want a program to be able to accomplish, and let the LLM research and implement the how. I only want to have to describe constraints i.e. it must enable me to be able to do A, B, and C, it must prevent X,Y, and Z; I want it to feel free to solve those constraints in the way it sees fit; and when I find myself unsatisfied with the output, I'll deliver it more constraints and ask it to regenerate.
by prpl | 2026-03-12 15:48:47+00:00
I don’t think that’s what it would look like at all. The first stages would be cheap - mostly requirements gathering and research, but a bit more focus on that. A bit more time would be spent up front, but then you’d see multiple proposals being built, from
that multiple plans being built, and finally multiple implementations to choose from. You might see A/B testing of multiple implementations or even products, and then a decision on which to pursue. You could move in multiple dimensions concurrently.

I’m not sure this is agile. I’m not sure it’s a waterfall.

>This is factually inaccurate

Yes, if you ignore the brief 2022 spike, they're as high as they ever been. Oh wow, you got me on a technicality, you're so smart, bravo, even though that doesn't change the situation of today where plenty of EU manufacturing companies have closed shop or moved jobs and manufacturing abroad since 2022.

From the link you posted, I see that energy today is still roughly 4x higher than it was before the Russian war, at least in my EU country. How competitive do you think EU manufacturing is today versus back then given the current pricing? How long can Eu companies stay in business given these circumstances? How long can EU taxpayers subsidize the energy of private business to make sure they don't go bust or leave before higher inflation kicks in?
