Self-taught · Phoenix, AZ
A self-taught developer's grimoire — written from the outside in.
Long-form explorations of software, AI, and the craft of building without a roadmap.
◈Atomic observations, quick references, and patterns worth preserving.
⬤Every tool, dotfile, and workflow that powers how I build — fully documented.
◯What I've made, how it was built, and what I learned along the way.
On this site
No bootcamp. No CS degree. Just a relentless pattern of building things until they work — then writing down why they didn't the first time. That tension between intuition and rigor is what this site is about.
Technology is not neutral. Every framework, every model, every protocol reflects choices made by people with particular beliefs about how the world should run. The writing here takes that seriously — treating code as a craft, a language, and occasionally a kind of practice.
9six3 is a place to think out loud about AI, infrastructure, automation, and what it means to build meaningfully in a world where software is eating everything faster than most people can read the documentation.
