Collections
Editorial guides that assemble tools into working stacks. Each collection explains why a tool is included and how the pieces fit together.
Academic Writing
From literature search to a submitted manuscript: discovery engines, a reference manager, a TeX distribution and editor, reproducible-document tooling, converters for the Word-only journal, and the identifiers and repositories that make the output citable.

Apple Silicon AI
Running and serving language, speech and vision models on Macs with M-series chips, from the array framework up to the applications that wrap it. Useful for anyone building a local or cluster-based inference setup on macOS rather than renting GPUs.

Evidence-Based LLM Development
Building LLM applications that can be measured: model APIs, retrieval components, and the evaluation and observability layer that turns prompt tinkering into something closer to engineering.

High-Frequency Finance Research
A working stack for intraday market-microstructure and asset-pricing research: where the minute bars and fundamentals come from, how to store tens of billions of rows on one machine, and which libraries carry the econometrics. Assembled from tools used in academic finance work rather than trading.

Self-Hosted Agent Infrastructure
Running LLM agents on hardware you control: a coding agent, the protocol that connects it to tools, frameworks for multi-step workflows, local or hosted model access through one interface, observability, and the plumbing (process supervision, reverse proxy, tunnel, secrets) that keeps it reachable and safe.
