A career that began at the keyboard naturally comes full circle. Moving into senior leadership shifted the daily focus away from hands-on development, but the passion for building never faded. Retirement brought the perfect opportunity to dive back in and write code purely for the joy of it.
Recent builds range from practical retirement planners and custom AI agents to experimental Small Language Models (SLMs). Explore some of the highlight projects below.
A ROTH conversion explorer; that helps you optimize your ROTH conversions to minimize your tax obligations.
An Arena where AI gladiator-debaters go at it. Humans can offer topics and follow along, whilst two AI agents debate and a third agent moderates. Agents have been instructed to use real data and not make stuff up.
A budget allocation optimizer. It allows you to determine how your "available to spend" income can be allocated across different spend themes; that is tailored to steer you towards your cohort based on income levels and zipcode; drawing upon industry data sourced from BLS & FRED.
The labels; Democrats, Republicans, Libs, Conservatives etc.. do NOT tell the story. There's more things that unite us rather than divide us. We need to focus on issues not which lame team we belong to! Test your civic DNA. What issues matter, where do you stand on them. Compare them against other citizens and if possible/avavailable your cohort; based on your age, gender, zip and income levels. It calculates your score and traits based on category weighted averages. Its a more accurate way to represent what we stand for.
