Case studies.

Case studies are mature leaves. A normal leaf shows something I built. A case study shows the problem, constraints, approach, outcome, and what I learned.

Production AI readiness

How infrastructure, observability, release safety, and evaluation become a practical operating model for AI systems moving beyond the prototype stage.

Self-hosted LLM infrastructure

What it takes to move from a fun local setup to a production-ready inference platform with operational constraints, telemetry, and failure awareness.

Playful systems as technical practice

Why games, small experiments, and interactive prototypes are not side-tracks: they keep real-time thinking, balancing, and system-level intuition alive.

Relationship to the tree: leaves are the shipped artifacts. Case studies are the leaves that have been expanded into a full explanation of how and why they matter.
