/present preoccupations

I'm currently an engineer at Facebook working on what I hope to be the future of payments. It keeps me busy, which is partly why this site won't always be up-to-date. See novi.com or diem.com for more info.

This site's purpose: to teach me first principles of front-end web dev, without the hand-waving fancy frameworks I normally use. The site is pure and simple - a Python webserver with minimal usage of Express and Jquery. I've learned a ton, but admittedly, it could use a modern revamp. Now that an MVP is up, next tasks include improved design, moving to REACT or Vue, live project demos, a sexy terminal, and more.
