Get new writing in your inbox.
A few times a month — when we publish a blog post or a research paper, you get the full text the moment it goes live. No tracking pixels. No newsletter spam. Plain HTML.

Email subscriptions go live shortly. In the meantime, our RSS feeds carry every post and paper as we publish.
What you'll get
-
Engineering notes from production work.
Lessons learned, retrospectives, and operator notes from real systems we've shipped. Examples: regime detection in illiquid markets, latency budgets for production RAG, reward-hacking patterns in LLM agents.
-
Research drafts and papers.
Selected work from our research line, published as we ship. Quantitative finance, ML systems, evaluation infrastructure. Sometimes early and rough; always honest.
-
Project announcements.
When we launch a new public engagement or release something open-source, you'll be among the first to know — usually a week before we make it public.
What you won't get
-
No tracking pixels.
We don't track opens, clicks, or device fingerprints. We can't tell whether you read a given email. We chose this on purpose.
-
No promotional sequences.
No drip campaigns, no "limited time offers," no automated upsells. You signed up for our writing — you'll get our writing.
-
No third-party sharing.
Your email lives in our newsletter tool (Buttondown), nowhere else. We never sell or share the list. Unsubscribe deletes you completely.
A note on privacy
We collect your email address and the timestamp you confirmed your subscription. That record lives in Buttondown, our email provider — nowhere else. We do not share it, sell it, or hand it to advertisers. Unsubscribing deletes your record completely. Full details, including how to request a copy of what we hold or have it removed, in our privacy notice.
