About
I'm Hamilton Greene and I'm a Technomancer. I've been into building and writing since high school when I spun up my first websites about video games and gadgets (not much has changed!). I grew up in Atlanta, GA and have moved around a bit from Austin, TX to Washington DC to NY, NY. I've worked as a software engineer since 2017 and built projects and written a blog on the side since ~2013.
I love thinking about and building systems. I tend to gravitate towards atomic simple scalable systems with the core philosophy that simple systems scale. Simple systems aren't always easy to create and under the hood they might be complex themselves but at the end of the day simple wins. This tends to showcase itself in the projects I build, the games I play, and how I structure my life.
Aside from technology I'm also into personal productivity, gadgets, walking and exploring, street photography, modern art and creative technology, fitness, video games, reading, and writing.
