This is a “now” page, a concept I first noticed on my friend Akash Goswami’s site and originally borrowed from Derek Sivers. I’ll come back to this page every so often to update it with progress on my short-term projects and my longer-lived interests.
What are you currently working on?
- Right now, I’m looking for my next challenge. Work for Voxa is always interesting, but I’m excited to find out what organisation I’ll call home next!
- I’m cooking up a couple of really cool blog posts, as part of my work for a more regimented content schedule for 2025. Right now, the “content schedule” is a more a list of topics I’m loosely interested in and feel I could write something about.
- In my spare time, I volunteer as an organiser of codebar’s West London chapter. I help run workshops to get under-represented groups into technology.
- I’m organising a comedy event for codebar which is slated for March. You should come!
What have you recently accomplished?
While looking to the future is always interesting, I also find it’s important to reflect on what I’ve achieved over the past few months too!
- I’ve redesigned this website to use my self-hosted wiki software as a CMS. It works surprisingly well!
- I’ve got LLMs running locally, on
