New blog (2019/02/13)
For reasons, I got frustrated with maintaining a blog software to interact with, so I stopped. I exported old posts, added aliases for them, but this is now a static page, for reasons. Using Hugo.
Whoops (2017/01/17)

Consultancygate: An Overview (2014/08/10)
UPDATE: New data showed up, and I’ve changed my conclusions on some aspects of

This article does not attempt to include all, or even many, of the examples. I am not implying that the things I don’t address are true, or even plausible; I’m just picking the examples I think are the clearest and easiest to understand without a ton of extra research. I looked into a lot more of them, and kept reaching the same conclusions. [read more...]

The future is here. (2014/07/12)
