A really fast website
Loads in under 200ms. Contains almost nothing. Correlation is not causation, but this time it is.

a developer, allegedly
I turn coffee into commits, and roughly 40% of those commits into
messages that just say fix. I build things for the web,
argue with computers professionally, and have never once written a
regex on the first try.

## Selected Work
Selected, because the rest is in a folder called old-final-v2-REAL.
Internal tool nobody asked for
Built in a weekend to avoid a task that would have taken twenty minutes. Now used by four people daily. No regrets.
The side project graveyard
Seventeen repositories, each with a beautiful README and zero features. The READMEs are genuinely excellent.
A CLI with a progress bar
The progress bar is the whole product. The underlying task finished ages ago, but people find the bar reassuring.

## FAQ
Are you a full-stack developer?
I am full-stack in the sense that I am equally uncertain at every layer.
Tabs or spaces?
Whatever the linter screams about the loudest. I have no principles, only pre-commit hooks.
Do you write tests?
Yes. Afterwards. In a panic. While the deploy is running.
What is your biggest weakness?
I say "it should be a quick fix" out loud, which summons a three-day debugging session. It is basically a curse.
Do you deploy on Fridays?
Only when I want the weekend to have a plot.
Can you fix my printer?
No. Nobody can. Make peace with it.
