Designing for good, not evil.
Tread warily!
I'm building this site in the open, and am in the process of tinkering with a blog and messing about here and there with layouts. I also just installed Cursor AI for a laugh and now I have an opinionated bot telling how much my code sucks.
In the spirit of iterative design, tread warily my friend and don't mind the typos, bugs, less polished bits and accessibility issues.
