This is a now page. It’s a snapshot of what I’m focused on right now.
Building this site. Setting up mitchyb.com as a proper lab notebook — structured for both human readers and AI discovery. Using Hugo with inline layouts, JSON-LD schema, and plain CSS.
Experimenting with local LLMs. Running Ollama on constrained hardware and testing which models are practical for everyday development tasks like code review and summarisation.
Exploring AI crawlability. Testing how AI-powered search tools discover and cite content from static sites. Tracking which structured data formats actually make a difference.
Reading about systems thinking. Working through Donella Meadows’ Thinking in Systems and connecting it to how I think about software architecture.
Writing more consistently. Aiming for one field note per week and one deep dive per month. The practice of writing matters as much as the output.
