Musings

These are musings. I write mostly to think, not because I have much figured out. Notes in progress on philosophy, computing, math, and whatever else I am working through. I write on Medium and X articles too. Subscribe via RSS.

Nothing here yet.

General

Everything else.

  1. Moral policing and the price of freedom

    A recent incident in Jamui, Bihar, and why a woman having to negotiate her own safety is not a private problem but a national one.

  2. On building slowly
