Architecture

A path forks in the foreground — one branch leads into a dark forest of broken, glowing technology and stormy decay; the other winds toward a bright, sustainable city under a golden sunset. The choice between an unstable path and one that leads forward.

Stable Problems

The moment everyone nods at the problem is the moment to slow down.

A clean geometric structure made of transparent glass blocks with simple arrows showing clear rules, contrasted against a tangled dark mass of wires and patches behind it — a visual metaphor for explainable design versus accumulated complexity

Aristotle as a software architect, contemplating a digital interface while fragmented design patterns labeled "Singleton" and "Bad Code" scatter around, with a flowing river of data representing well-modeled reality

Model the Reality, Not the Patterns

Why focusing first on properly modeling the domain is better than forcing design patterns into your code.
