Spent the week redesigning my portfolio’s blog layout and nuking thousands of stale notes in my Obsidian vault. Between the UI polish and some deep dives into libp2p DHT de-flaking, I pushed 36 commits and managed to delete almost 16,000 lines of clutter.

Blog Post

TL;DR

I’ve always believed that your digital space needs a good pruning every now and then to stay healthy. This week was the embodiment of that philosophy. I pushed 36 commits across four primary projects, resulting in over 23,000 additions and nearly 16,000 deletions. Most of that churn came from a massive redesign of my portfolio's blog and a long-overdue "fresh start" for my Obsidian vault. On the open-source side, I spent some quality time in the weeds of py-libp2p, chasing down flaky DHT tests and proposing better subnet diversity limits.

What I Built

Portfolio Redesign: The Typography Pivot

My main focus this week was my portfolio. I’ve been feeling like the blog layout was getting a bit cluttered, so I opened and merged PR #15, which was all about "typographic hierarchy instead of decoration." I’m moving away from unnecessary borders and boxes and letting the type do the heavy lifting.
