Asides

A space for shorter thoughts. I will attempt to release notes that I don't see discussed on the internet often, or things I learned and wish someone told me. I'm keeping my writings private for now, but if we are already good friends, reach out and we'll chat about the pieces. Archived thoughts are on my Substack.
