My name is Daryl. I live in Saigon, which is in Vietnam, which is on Earth, which is in the Milky Way. Which is also a chocolate bar. And choco stars. Man, I miss those things.
I run a marketing agency that occasionally convinces businesses to give us money1 in exchange for making them slightly more money. I also write an inordinate amount of code, though "write" is perhaps generous when it's mostly become insulting AI agents until they get it right.2
I read books. Many books. Too many books, if you ask my wife, who has requested I stop buying books until I finish the ones currently occupying three bookshelves, two nightstands, and what used to be the dining room table.
This is where I write about some of this, and occasionally other things that seem important at 2am.
