As someone who never seriously studied life sciences, I've always thought that the story with evolution was basically one of "random mutations can sometimes increase the likelihood of reproduction."

Single cell RNA sequencing, known as scRNA-seq, is the process of determining the level of gene expression across individual cells.

I recently found myself with some time on my hands, so I built a news filtering service for myself with Claude.

2025/early 2026 was a pivotal time for crypto.

As part of the 2020 DeFi wave there was also a big rise in NFT usage.

After RC, I took a job at Paxos because, aside from practical reasons like it let me stay in NYC, I interviewed with some engineers who seemed to share this "World Computer" vision.

I spent around 8 years in crypto as an engineer and I'm now exploring other areas of technology.
