Hello, I'm Sara. Design, code, infrastructure, AI

Most websites break for boring reasons

So do most habits, and most careers. I design and build things, keep them running, and lately spend a lot of time working out where AI actually helps and where it just sounds sure of itself. Notes on all of it are here.

What I'm up to

Building Waitlists and class packs in studiofacile.app
Fixing A store that only falls over on campaign days
Reading Designing Data-Intensive Applications, slowly
Training Pilates, in whatever studio the week offers
Testing Where AI helps in incident work and where it lies
Working on Saying I do not know yet, out loud, sooner

Site Reliability Engineering

Beyer, Jones, Petoff, Murphy

Error budgets changed how I argue with clients. Perfect uptime is not the goal, agreeing on how much unreliability is acceptable is, and once that number exists the technical decisions stop being opinions.

Thinking in Systems

Donella Meadows

The slow feedback loop is always the dangerous one. A site that degrades over eighteen months never triggers an alarm, and nobody is thanked for fixing something that had not broken yet.
