Welcome

Game developer at Pinguinista

Hand-drawn worlds, made by one person over a long time. Below: two games, one tool, and what I keep learning.

Pinguinista · games

Two games, both in silent production.

Hand-drawn, one person, a long time. More when there is something to show.

Next game

TBD

The first thing you will see of it is a clip, not a page.

Records of the Truth Bureau

TBD

A bureau, its records, and what the records leave out.

Seniority Rounds

Stay senior on what your agents are producing.

Avoid atrophy. Understand what your agents are producing, in a didactic, learning-in-the-loop way: cards, not diffs. The agent says what it wasn't sure about and what you didn't ask for; you predict before you look.

Try the demoPrivate while it is polished. Opening soon.

The Sovereign Seniority Manifesto

Epistemic Overdrive

The flood of agent decisions, intercepted and turned into hyper-compressed experience: years of architectural edge cases in weeks.

The Metamorphic Loop

A feedback cycle whose goal is to evolve the human, not only to fix the code. The code changes, and you morph alongside it.

Interests · experiments

Neural networks from first principles.

PyTorch, one self-checking component at a time, on a single RTX 3090. No nn.Transformer, no wrapper I can't explain. Next down the stack: CUDA and Triton kernels.

  • The modern dense transformer: RMSNorm · RoPE · SwiGLU · GQA · tied weights.

  • Sparse MoE + MLA in one model, with a router-specialization probe and a seed-averaged ablation.

  • Muon, Multi-Token Prediction and a base BPE tokenizer, each self-contained.
