make great apps
take the best naps

the last couple weeks have been truly awful and i don't know what this says about me but lately my only real joy has been from the usual things, long drives with audiobooks and opening Xcode to tinker on things.

Over the last few months, a bunch of promising leads haven't worked out. These things can take months, so who knows? But in the meantime, I have room for more work.

I help teams adopt Swift 6/Concurrency with confidence and success. More info about me here:

With Democrats like this, who needs Republicans?

let me guess, another strongly worded letter with a questionnaire?
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting

No one writes documentation. No one reads documentation. Everyone complains about lack of documentation. The equilibrium is mutual suffering. But sure, your startup is going to solve documentation.

some good genie wishes i’ve thought of lately:

- a world where time isn’t a currency
- the end of poverty
- magical climate change resolution
- a hair clip/tie that holds your ponytail the way your hand does

I am looking for a full-time job.

Being independent in open source for 3.5+ years has been wonderful. I've gotten done most of the high-level goals I wanted to, and miss having people & structure around me.

If you know of a role for a staff-level TypeScript+web developer, let me know! 🙂
