AIsolation of Slop

Writing code got cheap, containing it did not. How to isolate AI slop with small services, contracts kept outside the code, and a spec file per service.

Taking Chances

AI is one loaded chamber among several. A short look at the technologies that could end us, a small game about the odds, and the ones we decided not to build.

Building A Recording Studio

A 50 square meter room, decent gear, and a few hundred phone recordings that deserved better. Here is how the home studio came together, mic by mic and channel by channel.

Chrome Extensions

Two small Chrome extensions I built: Detour Reader opens the current page on archive.today, and Elevator plays background music inside a shared tab so it rides along on Meet, Zoom, or Discord.

Saine

A curated timeline of articles on AI, its impact, and responsible usage, necessary knowledge to stay sane in this day and age.

Lax

A Claude Code plugin that reconciles your issue tracker with what actually shipped on GitHub. Ship code first, track later — then sync the two with a human in the loop.

Skepsi Space

Skepsi Space

Skepsi Space is an AI-driven philosophy encyclopedia that began as an experiment in using artificial intelligence for large-scale data mining and knowledge extraction. The project explores how AI can systematically traverse the vast landscape of philosophical thought,from ancient traditions to contemporary discourse,and distill it into a structured, interconnected relational database.

What started as a proof of concept in automated knowledge engineering evolved into a living reference: AI agents parse primary and secondary sources, identify relationships between thinkers, ideas, movements, and arguments, and populate a richly linked database that surfaces connections a human reader might take years to uncover. The result is a navigable encyclopedia where every philosopher, concept, and school of thought exists within a web of meaningful relationships,influence chains, dialectical oppositions, shared premises, and historical context.

This Web

Get to Know Me

This website is not a company website.
It is not a polished marketing funnel or a carefully curated personal brand.
It is a creative outlet, a place where I gather the resources, ideas, and experiments I collect along the way, and try to make sense of them by putting them into words.


I built it because the world of software engineering is changing faster than anyone can keep up with, and AI is accelerating that pace in ways that are simultaneously thrilling and disorienting. I needed a space to track my own work and explorations, to document the things I build, break, and learn from, not for an audience, but for myself. If someone else finds it useful, even better.


You will find hot takes and personal opinions that might age poorly. You will find whacky tools built for no reason other than curiosity and fun. You will find write-ups on navigating the rapidly evolving landscape of AI-assisted development,n what works, what does not, and what I think about it all. Some of it will be technical, some of it will be philosophical, and some of it will just be me thinking out loud.


This is also where my portfolio lives, a unified home for the projects, tools, and professional work scattered across years and platforms. Rather than maintaining a dozen profiles elsewhere, everything converges here. The blog posts, the experiments, the professional work and the services, they are all part of the same story.


So no, this is not a blog about best practices or industry trends written to rank on search engines. It is one engineer's notebook, left open on the desk. Flip through it if you like. Disagree with it if you must. But know that everything here was written because it mattered to me at the time, and that is the only editorial standard this place will ever have.


Love,
Ogi
