Est. MMXXVby Alex

A web of ideas,
spun slowly and on purpose.

Arachnida is the corner of the internet where I keep my journal in public. Essays on the things I cannot stop thinking about — philosophy of mind, the quiet politics of knowing, systems and the people inside them — alongside the occasional artifact I build when an idea refuses to stay theoretical. The journal is the center of it — come read it.

I believe epistemic humility to be the highest virtue — a virtue held loosely if it is to be practiced.

Things I built when an idea refused to stay theoretical.

The original meaning of Apps in Arachnida Apps was the obvious one. The reinterpretation is more interesting: applications of ideas — the move from insight to action.
