I create videos that explain how modern systems work by breaking down the engineering and architectural tradeoffs behind them. From databases and performance models to AI agents, protocols, and distributed system patterns — each video focuses on why a technology is designed the way it is, and what it gains or sacrifices as a result. Topics include: • System design & backend architecture • Databases, caching models, and storage internals • High-performance and low-latency systems • AI agents, LLM tooling, and reasoning workflows • Networking, protocols, and infrastructure patterns If you’re interested in understanding technology through design decisions and tradeoffs, you’ll find content here.
