Hi there! I write original, in-depth articles about geek culture, electronic circuit theory, history of everyday items, photography, wacky algorithms, tree felling, and more.
I can’t promise you a fixed set of topics, but I do my best to bring the readers well-researched, non-regurgitated, and clickbait-free content that appeals to their inner geek. To review a thematic index of past articles, click here.
