Starting this blog

I’ve been writing private notes for years that never see the light of day: half-baked ideas about software engineering, language models, the state of Chilean politics, and occasionally theological readings that haunt me for weeks. This blog is the attempt to pull some of those notes out of the drawer.

What’s coming

I don’t intend to write about a single topic. The fragmentation is deliberate: the best conversations I have cross domains. An idea from political theology clarifies a systems design problem; an AI paper sends me back to Aristotle.

The main axes:

• AI & software engineering — patterns, experiments, opinions on where complexity is accumulating and where the state of the art is maturing.
• Science & technology — what catches my attention and why.
• Politics — domestic (Chile) and international, without partisanship.
• Philosophy & theology — long readings, not apologetics.

How it’s built

Astro 5, Markdown and MDX where interactivity matters, Tailwind, Shiki for code highlighting, Pagefind for search. Deployed to Vercel from a GitHub repo. The code will likely end up public at some point.

// Probably the most used function in this blog
export function postHref(post: Post): string {
  return `/${post.data.lang}/posts/${postSlug(post)}/`;
}

If anything I write is useful, wrong, or interesting to you, I’m glad.
