Philosophy for Builders

1 Post

A series that applies philosophy as an engineering lens: not as abstract theory, but as a way to make clearer trade-offs, build more sustainable systems, and lead with more intention. Each post starts with a concept (Stoicism, memento mori, Socratic method...) and translates it into concrete frameworks, questions, and habits you can actually use while shipping.

    Memento mori isn’t morbid — it’s clarifying. A practical lens to prioritize what we build, protect our attention, and choose work we can actually sustain.
