Design & Fabrication

I’m a maker at heart.


Since as far as can remember I was always tinkering with, dismantling and reassembling things. In more recent years I have formalized this with proper tools and am now able to properly build quality pieces.

AI-assisted discussions

Discussions, notes & working hypotheses

This section replaces the old books and quotes shelf with a living record of conversations I want to preserve: technical investigations, market notes, political questions, automotive ideas, and other subjects worth tracing over time.

Select a rounded discussion card to open the preserved log.

Frontier biology · Discussion log

COVID origins, Wuhan transparency, and mirror-life red lines

A preserved reasoning chain about lab-origin uncertainty, missing research access, dual-use biology, and whether frontier wet-lab work needs hard prohibitions rather than soft governance.

Porsche 997 · Technical note

997.1 ownership notes

Sport Chrono, oil-level behavior, PIWIS, pre-purchase inspection logic, VIN details, and practical notes from maintaining a 997.1 Carrera S.

Markets · Ongoing

UNG, commodities, and vehicle risk

Notes on long-duration natural gas exposure, losses without gains, futures roll mechanics, and the difference between a good thesis and a poor instrument.

Public finance · Position essay

Debt repayment versus new national funds

A fiscal-policy thread comparing household-style balance-sheet discipline with government borrowing, national investment vehicles, and debt citizens never personally chose.

Instrumentation · Field notes

Analytical equipment thinking

A technical corner for ICP-OES and MP-AES maintenance logic, service documentation, calibration habits, and bench-level troubleshooting discipline.

Local AI · Build research

Open-source models at home

Notes on local model hosting, LoRA and QLoRA fine-tuning, rack-mounted systems, and where automation becomes useful rather than decorative.
