  • AI coding tools should reach beyond the editor

    seed · Jun 30, 2026

    AI-assisted coding accelerates one pillar of development work — writing code. The real leverage is an assistant that works across all three pillars, project management and infrastructure included, closing the whole loop instead of one third of it.

  • Enabling data-driven results

    evergreen · May 9, 2023

    Integrating decision support systems into business processes — the building blocks of descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive systems, and why results happen in processes, not in the systems themselves.

  • Artificial intelligence: a concise conceptual introduction

    evergreen · May 25, 2020

    A conceptual map of artificial intelligence — from the definition of intelligence to the five abstraction layers of every machine learning solution.

  • Multiple linear regression

    evergreen · Mar 16, 2020

    Linear regression with several features in matrix form: the closed-form least-squares estimator derived and computed, the sampling distribution of the coefficients, and a from-scratch look at LASSO, ridge, and elastic-net regularization.

  • Simple linear regression

    evergreen · Mar 16, 2020

    Fitting a line from scratch: the model and its assumptions, least-squares estimates derived by hand and by optimizer, the sampling distributions of the coefficients, a confidence band for the mean response, and R².

  • Single-parameter frequentist inference

    evergreen · Jan 8, 2019

    Three estimators for the mean of a normal sample — sample mean, least squares, and maximum likelihood — derived from scratch and shown to coincide, then confidence intervals checked against the truth.

  • The law of large numbers

    evergreen · Jan 4, 2019

    Why the average of many trials settles on the expected value — shown with coin and dice simulations in NumPy, then the weak law stated and proved via Chebyshev's inequality.

  • Markov chains

    evergreen · Dec 14, 2018

    A from-scratch look at Markov chains with NumPy — the Markov property, transition matrices, and how any starting distribution converges to the same stationary distribution.
