I want to understand what’s coming. The only way I know how to do that is to learn how things actually work.
Something big is happening with technology right now. AI, cybersecurity, the infrastructure behind it all. I don’t want to watch from the sidelines. I want to understand the inner workings so I can make better decisions about how I live and work.
Writing helps me think. Sharing publicly keeps me accountable. If these notes help someone else along the way, that’s a bonus.
What I’ll Cover
This blog covers the topics I’m actively trying to understand.
Technology from the ground up. Not tutorials, but overviews of the things that matter. How electricity works, semiconductors, and the materials that make AI possible.
I’ll also cover data centers, cloud infrastructure, and the power they consume. LLMs, algorithms, and what the frontier labs are building. You need to understand these things to understand what’s coming.
Cybersecurity and its impact. How attacks work, what’s changing, and why it matters for everyone, not just people in tech.
I’ll also be exploring AI security topics. As AI systems become more powerful and integrated into everything, understanding how they can be attacked, manipulated, or misused is critical. I’ll be posting about these challenges and what they mean for the future.
What social media and AI are doing to our brains. How algorithms keep us scrolling. What that does to our attention, our mental health, and our ability to think clearly.
Focus as a skill. I believe focus will be one of the most valuable abilities in the future. We’re losing it, and most people don’t notice until it’s gone.
The Balance
Technology should help us, not consume us. That sounds obvious, but look around.
People check their phones 100 times a day. Kids can’t sit through a meal without a screen. Adults doom-scroll for hours and wonder why they feel anxious.
I care about maintaining independence. Using these tools on my terms, not theirs. Knowing when to switch off. Keeping a balance between the digital world and the real one.
Staying sane in the middle of all this is not automatic. It takes intention.
Who I Am
Someone who wants to understand what is coming and how we as human beings will be impacted. I work in technology. I read history. I think a lot about how to stay grounded while everything around us accelerates.
Thanks for reading!
