I used to be a developer. Then I was a soldier. Then I became a corporate leader. And now I'm also a researcher. All of these parts of me can be found in my blog and my research. I am also the father of three boys, a hobby woodworker, hobby gardener, hobby philosopher, hobby historian, and hobby anything else that captures my ever growing interests.

Aug 20, 2025 · 4 min read · This is new for me. I haven’t shared any of my technical work since the days of VB6. And yet here I am, embarking on a serious (hobby) career as a prompt researcher. Let me set the stage just a little bit (if you’ll indulge me) and show you why my pa...
