Something feels off about the job market, even when the data says otherwise. This post breaks down why.

It’s a look at how headline numbers can miss what’s actually happening on the ground.

After each shoot, I used to spend 15 minutes manually sorting photos. Lightroom’s import tool wasn’t cutting it. So I built a custom photo import script using Claude Code. It detects the SD card, organizes by file type, filters junk, and sorts by date. It even checks the copies and asks for shoot names. It’s not perfect, but it works. And it saves me time.

Underemployment is tough when you’re someone who’s used to building, solving, and delivering.

We’ve had experience with revolutionary tech. Remember CGI? We are following similar paths with AI as we did with CGI. Massive adoption, over-adoption, then settling into a balanced approach. Here’s how I think it will pan out.

The operating system we know and love today will not be sustainable in a post AI world. These OS’s are designed for offline first workloads, with much of the work we do on a day to day basis done in a browser. What would a post-AI OS look like?

I was tasked with developing and maintaining HIPAA policies and procedures to improve compliance readiness.

A look at how AI could shift software pricing from user licenses to feature-level value, encouraging leaner, outcome-driven tools over bloated all-in-one platforms.

A breakdown of how AI could simplify cluttered software interfaces by surfacing just-in-time features, improving usability, and shifting the way we think about how we use apps.

Microsoft finally went passwordless. Thats a huge pro for the security world. As more companies do the same, what are some good and bad things about going passwordless.

The UK government's demand for a backdoor into Apple’s encryption led to the removal of Advanced Data Protection in the UK, weakening the future of securing users data in the future.
