A private library made public.
These are the books I return to, the ones I'm working through, and the ones waiting. No particular genre. A particular kind of curiosity.
The shelf tends toward questions that don't resolve cleanly — how systems behave, how decisions get made, how intelligence (human and otherwise) navigates uncertainty.
Prediction & uncertainty What can be known in advance, and what can't. How forecasting works when the world resists it. How reducing the cost of a single cognitive act — prediction — reshapes entire economies.
Intelligence & decision-making The machinery behind judgment. Where intuition holds and where it fails. How organizations think, and what happens when machines begin to think alongside them.
Systems & strategy The structural forces underneath industries, institutions, and ideas. What changes when scale, scope, and learning are no longer constrained.
Identity under pressure What persists when the body is replaced, duplicated, or engineered. Who you are when the system you were built for no longer needs you.
