An Actual Update

It turns out coding and infra are more fun that blogging

I've worked on this site a since I wrote the first article, as it happens, it's mostly turned into a project for me to explore tools that I like and to learn front end. Although, because I really like our stack at work, I've drawn heavily from it.

Currently this site has a lot of raw html and vanilla javascript, partially because of my desire to build a knowledge base from the ground up and partially because my taste is fairly minimal. Less and simpler code means fewer bugs.

On the other hand, this site builds on my macbook and my linux desktop with bazel. I think reproducible builds and having as much as you can defined in cross-platform code is valueable.

Hello World!

My name is J.P Pittman.

I'm a currently a software engineer working in storage at Google. I decided to make this site as an outlet for my thoughts, opinions, and tastes. I'll publish here things I've learned and found interesting about technology, plant-based lifestyles, and maybe some stuff about meditation/spirituality/life.
