Starting the Ledger

Most personal sites pick a lane. A dev blog, a finance newsletter, a running log. I'm not doing that, and here's the reasoning.

The three things I spend my time on — writing software, thinking about businesses as an investor, and training for long distances — aren't actually separate disciplines. They share the same posture: small, honest inputs compounding over a long horizon, with the discipline to keep showing up on the days it doesn't feel like progress.

That's the frame for this site. Every post gets filed under one of a few tags:

  • Build — Hedgecraft, side projects, and the technical decisions behind them
  • Markets — companies I'm studying, positions I hold, and the reasoning behind them
  • Miles — training logs and what ultramarathons have taught me about everything else
  • Notes — the connective tissue between all of it

I'm starting this now because I'm about to begin a new chapter — a junior software developer role that puts me closer to the kind of engineering work I went back to school for. Writing in public, on a fixed cadence, is a forcing function I've used before and trust.

More soon.
