Engineering Principles
Every line of code has an impact: it consumes energy, demands cognitive load, and affects privacy. I don't just write software; I build responsible systems.
1. User Owns Their Data
No third-party cookies, no fingerprinting, no data selling. Privacy is a human right, not a setting.
2. Web is for Humans, not Bots
All content is written by a human. I use AI for coding (pair programming), but the thought and voice are mine. I maintain an llms.txt for structured AI access to my content. I do not authorize mass scraping or training foundational models on my work without explicit consent.
3. Performance is Respect
Shipping megabytes of unnecessary JavaScript is disrespectful to the user's time, battery, and data plan. Efficiency is my form of hospitality.
4. Radical Transparency
Open Code (MIT) and Protected Content (CC). I share how I build things so others can learn, while retaining ownership of my ideas.
Legal Framework
Use my code to learn or build. Just give me credit.
Share my ideas, but don't sell them. If you remix, share alike.
