Checked 2 October 2026 · AI-assisted review
Checked title, publication date, links and synopsis against the local MDX source.

The autobiographical introduction and stated themes of the blog. Checked the repository MDX source, not the live page.
What this check doesn’t establish
- Employment history and personal contributions are the author’s own account; they were not independently authenticated.
- The 2026-02-07 biography is not represented as a statement of current employment.
- Historical link-resolution notes were preserved as provenance, not rerun as an exhaustive live link audit.
Confidence applies to the scope above, not every claim made by the underlying source. How confidence works
