Some things I believe
-
Kernel to silicon first — Abstract only when necessary.
- Abstract only when necessary.
- The real bottlenecks in high-scale systems live in syscall context switching, lock contention, cache thrashing, and un-isolated multi-tenant memory pressure.
- When performance degrades, profile down to hardware counters, MSRs, and kernel tracepoints rather than guessing.
-
Autonomous developer infrastructure — Eliminate manual DevOps friction.
- Eliminate manual DevOps friction.
- A developer should be able to rent, configure, and boot a dedicated 96-core server in seconds directly from a chat interface or terminal.
- Artifact uploads should auto-resume, compiles should self-monitor, and builds should alert developers when done.
-
Upstream open engineering — Do not hide behind proprietary hacks.
- Do not hide behind proprietary hacks.
- When Google's AOSP Ninja or Cline's agent execution engine has a performance bottleneck, dive into the source, patch it, and merge it upstream for the ecosystem.
-
Shipping beats debating — 2,000 commits in production beats 100 pages of theoretical architecture docs.
- Build the prototype, stress-test it against real workloads, measure latencies, and iterate.
