This is my personal 1990s moment: I'm starting a blog. And am I writing this in a
café.[^la-scala] I have a few thoughts behind this:

thoughts and present them in a way that is hopefully helpful to others.

otherwise--and do so in way that others will useful.
Foremost, I like to write. I believe in the cliché that "clear writing is clear
thinking". Writing helps me organize my thoughts so that they are easy for
others to follow. If I can do that, then I really understand a topic.
Secondly, I have had the fortune to have learned from many people during my
life. I have also worked on several technical
problems.
I would like to use this platform to reflect on the lessons that I have
learned and pass these along to others.
Secondly, this is a way of giving back. I have had the good fortune to learn
from many people. I have struggled with technical and non-technical of topics.
I am hopeful that by recording what I have learned and the perspectives that I
have developed, I can be useful to others.
