AI systems that survive production

Patterns for shipping LLM systems that hold up under real load: multi-agent orchestration, incident response, cost, and sandboxing the agents themselves.

Teaching machines to read the earth

Productionising ML on 3D volumetric data that maps the subsurface: representation, training at volume, and getting models off the notebook and into a pipeline.

An AI life coach, built from scratch

The Experiment: custom memory, open-source models, and a real evaluation framework. The longest-running build, and the one throwing off the most write-ups.

Shipping & operating products solo

Lessons from building and operating SortedOut and Rinqer end to end: turning a gnarly rules engine into something strangers trust, and what traction really costs.

LLM-augmented data pipelines

Where language models genuinely earn their place in a pipeline: extraction, routing, and validation, and where a plain function is still the right call.

Clustering: finding the shape of data

Unsupervised and supervised clustering in practice: when each earns its keep, evaluating the result, and not fooling yourself with pretty plots.

hard thing, now and then.

No schedule, no funnel. Just a short note when a build teaches me something worth passing on.
