A notebook for thinking in public.

I’m David. Peculiar Writings is where I slow ideas down long enough to understand them—and share what survives the process.

The subjects will move around: software and systems, tools and craft, learning, decision-making, and whatever else rewards careful attention. The common thread is curiosity backed by the work of making an idea clear.

This is a personal site, not a publication schedule. Expect considered notes when there is something worth saying.
