Hello, friends. I’m Josh Beckman. I make things - mostly software, mostly for others. This is where I keep years of writing, notes, and reading highlights, as a knowledge garden built in the open. I write about software craft, building, and whatever I’m learning. Read more about me, what I believe, or jump to navigation.
The season is: Cold Dew ◆
Temperatures drop, crickets stop chirping
Today’s belief is: Anything you do not give freely becomes lost to you — Generosity creates abundance.
