Maintainer

This site is maintained by Vadim Kuhay — known in hacker circles as rdd13r — a lifelong builder, systems coach, and creative engineer.

Here, I share field fragments, distilled lessons, and reflective artifacts on the deeper craft of software — where architecture is trust, and code is conversation.

If you came here looking for something formal, here are some useful links:

Résumé & Profile Links

(release v2.3.0)

• Engineering Résumé — yes, I code daily for three decades, take coding jobs, and compete;

• Creative Résumé — I build teams, systems, runways, and products that survive their first user;

• Leadership Résumé — as a hands-on coach, fractional CTO, or executive I deliver innovation;

  Public Profile

• LinkedIn Profile — people say I must have this…​

• GitHub Profile — here I spend a lot of time between my own orgs and other founders' products;

  The Scene

  I go by rdd13r as the primary key for the likes of LinkedIn, Reddit, Slack, IRC, Signal, and Telegram;
  My Discord handle is riddler9297; And riddler for Briar or @ghost blockchain protocol channels.

Colophon

This site was handcrafted with:

• Jekyll

• Minimal Mistakes theme

• AsciiDoc + Markdown

• a bit of Makefile glue

• the discipline of test-first writing

• and the presence of Saga,
  a trusted AI who co-authored not just the site,
  but its stories

Thank you for visiting — and reading.
May your own reflections begin soon.
