Maybe recognition is less about detached labels than it is about where something is, what surrounds it, and how that context gets reinforced. That is what pushed me to build this repo. I wanted a smaller problem that still felt close to the thing I cared about.

Introduction In Part 1, we successfully moved the resume from a local editor to a live URL. But an empty repository is like a house without a front door, functional, yet inaccessible to those looking in. In this second installment, we’re going back into the terminal to master the art of the README. I’ll show you how to turn a folder of code into a polished, technical portfolio that speaks for it
I do a bunch of small things on the side. I wrote a website for a friend's thesis, took on a couple of commissioned full-stack jobs, and I have one actual side hustle that's trying to make money.

In practice, it behaved like an anti-pattern: It scaled poorly So I treated it like deprecated code and started a refactor. The Bug: Over-Availability as a Def
Git saves your history locally. On your machine. Invisible to everyone else. GitHub puts that history on the internet. Now your code is backed up off-site. Now collaborators can contribute. Now recruiters can see your work. Now you can open your project from any computer in the world with one command. GitHub is not just Git storage. It is your professional portfolio. Every project you build in thi
If you’ve ever rented in the US, you’ve probably done this: You receive the lease… “Looks standard.” That assumption can be expensive. ⚠️ The problem nobody talks about Lease agreements often include things that aren’t obvious: hidden or loosely defined fees And even if you read everything… understanding the implications isn’t trivial. Legal language isn’t designed to be easy. 💡 So I built someth
