I'm a software engineer who likes working across multiple languages and all parts of the stack: from low-level performance work to web UIs, with a lot of automation and API design in between.

Here are some ideas that have shaped how I think about building software (in no particular order):

• Poka-yoke
• Root cause analysis
• Simplicity through consistency
• Power through composability
• Avoid local maximums
• Compile errors are better than runtime crashes

• Understanding Computation — Tom Stuart
• The Pragmatic Programmer - Andrew Hunt & David Thomas
• Living Documentation - Cyrille Martaire
• Rust Atomic and Locks - Mara Bos
• Learn You a Haskell for Great Good - Miran Lipovača
• The Elements of Style - William Strunk

• Simple Made Easy — Rich Hickey
• Practical Data Oriented Design — Andrew Kelley
• Biodigital Jazz! — Joran Dirk Greef
• Why Datomic — Stuart Halloway
• Mojo: a deep dive on ownership — Chris Lattner
• Debugging with the Scientific Method — Stuart Halloway
