Now, the previous blogs never got beyond the first post describing how/why I built the engine, but THIS TIME will be different, I'm sure...

I'm not saying it's not useful, I'm just saying it's not what got me into tech.
It's always a joy to discover a new software project that is actually DEEPLY focused on the human experience and craftpersonship, rather than a clever quick-value-grab.
But you have to look pretty hard!

But the imprecise and the open and the expansive? We already have that. And it's beautiful when it's owned by a human, it's connected to an intention. We emit it and observe it and let it wash over us. That's life to me.

In particular, I'm not very inspired by tech which is efficient, but only probabilistic or open-ended. Enablement is more inspiring than efficiency.
Humans are bad at precision. Tools (like software) are exciting when they can augment the human experience by enabling precision when it's useful.
