CRAFT / CONTEMPLATION
Philosophy & Mythology
Vedanta, Stoicism, Greek myths — old stories that keep shaping the new builds.
THE PRACTICE
How this craft shows up
The Gita on detached action reads like a runbook for on-call rotations. Marcus Aurelius on obstacles reads like incident review guidance. The old stories keep turning out to be documentation.
This thread runs through everything here: Dhyaana draws on contemplative practice, and the notebook keeps returning to what the philosophers got right about building.
- Vedanta and Stoicism as engineering philosophy
- Myth as documentation: patterns older than software
- Notes on thinking in the notebook
