What do you do when you can do anything?

This site is where I explore that question: building mastery, maintaining relationships, making useful things, travelling, learning languages, improving my health, and working out which resistance is worth choosing.

I became properly financially independent (FIRE) in 2022, which gave me the freedom to spend long periods staying in various places in the world (mostly Japan)—and the more challenging/rewarding freedom of deciding what to do with my time.

Computers have always been part of my life. My dad bought a ZX Spectrum on the day I was born. I studied Computer Games Technology at university and have worked in a variety of software jobs over the years. Even when I’m not working, I’m always thinking about the next software project to make.
