Side Projects

My passion has changed over the years, but it has always been in the open source and developer space and educating others from my learning.

GenerativeProgrammer.com

My latest passion is helping software professionals stay current with AI. I run a newsletter at https://generativeprogrammer.com/, where I share curated links, deep dives, tools, and trends every week or two. It's focused on practical AI for developers, without the noise. If you want to partner with me, drop me a DM.

OSS.Fund

I maintain a curated list of platforms for funding, monetizing, and sustaining open source software at https://oss.fund. I also blog about open source at https://blog.oss.fund. Let me know if you have more ways to support open source.
