About

I'm Sumit. I'm drawn to the unglamorous layers of software, the queues, pipelines and data paths everything else quietly depends on, and I want to get very good at building them.

Most of what I make starts as a question: how would this hold up at ten times the load, or ten years from now? The answers end up here, as posts and projects in the mesh. Outside the code I read and practise mathematics, because clear systems usually start as clear thinking.
