Notes on architecture, simplicity, and building things that last.
The Cost of Complexity
Every abstraction is a debt paid with interest. In enterprise SAP ecosystems, complexity is often dressed as capability — another layer, another integration point. But complexity compounds. The system that took six months to build takes eighteen to debug.
Two Modes, One Brain
My professional world is SAP BTP — CAP, OData, enterprise compliance at scale. My personal world is the opposite: Rails, Hotwire, ship it on a weekend. The contrast isn't a contradiction. Working both ends sharpens your judgement about where each approach earns its keep.
Build It, Then Delete Half
The first version is always too big. I treat the initial build as a draft — get it working, then remove everything that isn't load-bearing. This site has no JavaScript on the main pages. Not because JS is bad, because it wasn't needed.
When Uptime Is Non-Negotiable
Working in the energy sector changes how you think about resilience. These systems underpin critical infrastructure — outages aren't inconvenient, they're consequential. That pressure sharpens your instincts for failure modes and the boring reliability that never makes a conference talk.
