One restless curiosity.
Medical student. Military officer. Builder.
A collection of tools, research, and experiments made with frontier AI, in the hours between everything else.
Built to be used.
Step 2 CK QbankRebuilt
Public study site over seven Anki-derived banks: 12,972 board-style questions and 12,357 guide facts across eight subjects, a UWorld-style test engine with tutor and exam modes, per-system performance, and three drill tools. Built by a chunk, author, independent-review, adversarial-triage pipeline that caught and corrected about 100 factual errors in the commercial source decks.

Full-stack I-PASS/SBAR handoff system built as an emergency medicine QI project: named-receiver read-back that only the receiver can acknowledge and verify, action items, Joint Commission compliance metrics with CSV export, and HIPAA-conscious audit logging over synthetic patients. Flask and SQLite on a free tier, so the first load wakes the server.

Pattern-interpretation trainer: 28 procedurally generated rhythm strips at 25 mm/s with calipers and a live monitor, a fixed 8-step read of 14 twelve-lead cases with MI localization by territory, and an outside-in chest film read over synthesized radiographs and real films. Every case sourced.

Tower defense where the body is the map: 16 guideline cases as levels, 34 real drugs as towers against 25 organisms, damage set by coverage and site penetration, resistance bred by antibiotic pressure, and organ toxicity, plus a one-patient Ward Rounds mode. TypeScript and Canvas, every fact sourced, 104 tests.

All-branch PT scorecard at 2026 standards: six services scored from their official charts with the source cited, per-service body composition screens, run pacer with lap splits, ruck planner, and score history. The build refuses to ship unless 72 spot checks read off the printed charts pass.

Frontier capability ledger across 10 sectors, 57 models and dozens of benchmarks: a weighted composite score with its method published, verified ARC-AGI cells, a capability-milestones register, a capability-against-control safety ledger, and a gated-tier toggle for what the labs hold back. Updated September 2026.

Four sims, one umbrella: the Alignment Simulator (run a frontier lab, 12 decisions, 6 endings, built from the Risk Stack paper), Code Blue (spacebar CPR with live rate and depth feedback, AHA 2020), Half-Life Tracker (caffeine, hydration, and BAC pharmacokinetics), and Pocket Telescope (live night-sky ID and star quizzes).

Draft intelligence terminal for a 12-team half-PPR league: an 862-player board valued on a weighted seven-source composite and read against the Sleeper room's market price, weekly projections priced as points above replacement, Monte Carlo pick-path simulation in a worker, an in-season wire of injuries and market movers, and read-only replay of a live Sleeper draft room. Static PWA with CI-gated deploys and a test suite that also runs against production.

The Frontier AI Risk Stack
Frontier AI risk is best understood not as a single category but as a stack of six interacting layers. The most serious dangers arise from the way failures compound across layers: a structured analytical tool for policymakers, developers, and civil society.
Three Roads From Here
The three positions on frontier AI (safety through development, acceleration, pause) characterized on their strongest terms, with existential and suffering risk treated as separate axes that do not always move together. The central frame: the camps are reading three different payoff matrices for the same game.
Two Stories About the Beginning
The Big Bang and a generated origin are the same kind of story: a starting condition plus a rule, with the evidence only ever reaching the rule. Four objections (tidiness, cheating, motive, proving too much) are taken seriously; two of them force the second story to change, and it survives as a testable rival rather than an evasion.
Reading Room
An annotated card catalogue of 64 AI papers, X threads and blog posts collected through April 2026, each with a technical summary, a plain-language version and a note on why it matters.

One thesis: every great question converges on alignment, whether we can build minds that want what we want. Cosmology, consciousness, AI, identity, theology and game theory, each question read twice: as the classical problem and through the AI lens.

In the spare hours.
This manual documents five months of learning and building in spare hours. These projects were made possible by tools that lowered the technical barrier between an idea and working software. Others will bring different experience and build better things.
Everything listed is deployed and public. Chapter 2 does not take that on faith: when this page loads, your browser pings every host in Figure 1-1 and records what came back. Chapter 3 lists the systems by domain, Chapter 4 collects the written doctrine, Chapter 5 the smaller equipment. Appendix A is the change record for the manual itself.
Every system was specified by the operator and written with Claude, then verified the way a clinician verifies a lab: against a source, by a second reader, and against the live deployment rather than the local copy. Medical content carries its citations. Scoring tables cite the governing publication. Where a source deck was wrong, the question was corrected and the correction logged.
Study tools on this site are for exam preparation and are not medical advice. Clinical calculators and field references are teaching aids; confirm with the governing guideline before use on a patient.
And a few detours.
Same person. New perspective.
This site is rebuilt from the ground up at every new Anthropic model class, as a personal benchmark of frontier capability. Each edition is designed end to end by the model it is named for, then retired, not deleted, when its successor arrives. The archive is the measurement: put two volumes side by side and you can see, in typography and judgment rather than benchmark scores, how far the frontier moved. Vol. 01 wore the newsroom, Vol. 02 wore the clinic, and Vol. 03 wears the uniform.

What changed in Change 3, beyond the design: the Step 2 site was rebuilt as a public question bank (12,972 items, up from 2,245), the lab reference gained a clickable CBC + CMP decoder, the AGI Tracker gained a milestones timeline, Edge gained its in-season wire, and the line count was recounted from source with generated data excluded (150,906, up from 65,538). Two things this edition adds that no earlier volume had: live reachability measured from the reader's browser, and an index.
