Colophon
What this site does, and doesn't.
Privacy, licensing, and the parts worth stating plainly rather than burying in a document nobody reads.
Privacy
The short version: I don't collect anything. No analytics, no tracking pixels, no cookies, no advertising, no third-party scripts. Both typefaces are served from this domain, so loading a page doesn't announce your visit to anyone else. There are no forms, so there's nothing to submit.
Two things do happen, and a privacy page that omitted them would be lying:
localStorage under the key theme. It never leaves your device, and nothing reads it except this site deciding which colors to paint. Left on "auto", nothing is stored at all. Clearing site data removes it.That's the complete list.
Dates
Posts are dated to when the work happened, not when I wrote them up. This site went live in September 2026, and several posts describe projects from well before that — the dates are there so the timeline reads honestly, not to imply the writing is older than it is. Nothing here was previously published somewhere else.
Views are my own
Everything here is mine personally. I work as an engineer at a healthcare company, and nothing on this site is written on my employer's behalf, represents their position, or discloses anything about their systems, their customers, or their data.
Where work comes up, it's deliberately general — the engineering lessons, not the specifics.

Code samples are a different matter: they're in the posts to be used. Treat snippets as public domain unless a post says otherwise.
How it's built
frame-ancestors, nosniff, and a referrer policy at the edge.Security
