Rails Code Review -- I will tell you the truth
One hour. Push a branch, walk through it with me. I will be honest. Some people cry. Some people ship better code the next day. Most do both.
FFmpeg From Scratch -- 2 hours, from fopen to H.264
We read the original FFmpeg source. I walk you through the demuxer, the codec, the filter graph, and the mux. By the end you will understand why every video on the internet passes through this code.
Kernel Patch Review -- free, and I promise to be kind
Email me your kernel patch. I will review it. I owe the community this one. You get honest feedback. Free. You do not even have to say thank you. But it will be kind -- that is the deal I made in 2018 and I am keeping it.
Redis Internals Bootcamp -- 4 sessions
Four 90-minute sessions. We read Redis source together -- event loop, key expiration, the AOF. You walk away able to find a memory leak in anybody's C code. Bring a laptop and a kitchen light.
Framework Extraction Workshop -- pull a library out of your real app
Three sessions. Bring a real codebase. We find the patterns worth extracting, pull them into a gem, and ship both the product AND the library. The Basecamp-to-Rails move, but on your code.
Quake Engine Source Tour -- 2 hours, commented
We walk through the Quake engine line by line. BSP trees, visibility, collision, the network code. You will see why the game shipped on a Pentium 75 and still looked like magic.

Local Delivery Service -- Trapani Centro
I deliver anything that fits in my bike panniers (when the bike works) or I carry it on foot. Groceries, packages, bakery orders, documents. I know every street in Trapani centro -- every shortcut, every one-way street, every doorbell code that doesn't work. Same-day delivery within the old town. For bigger loads or when the bike is broken (often), I walk. Still faster than the post office.
Whiskey & Code Night -- Pair Programming on the Rooftop
Friday nights at Baglio Xiare. Bring your laptop and a bug you can't fix. I bring the Lagavulin and 20 years of debugging wisdom. We solve your problem or we drink until it doesn't matter anymore. Either way, you leave with a story. Max 4 developers per session.
Night Navigation Workshop -- Follow the North Star
Navigating by stars, moss, river direction, and landmarks in total darkness. I moved hundreds of people through swamps and forests at night with no map. The North Star was our compass. The drinking gourd song was our code. Tip: Move when the dogs cannot track -- in rain, through water, downwind. The night is your friend if you know her.
Signal Encoding Workshop -- Data Compression Before Computers
Small group (max 4). The principles behind Morse code, Braille, semaphore, and other encoding systems. How do you represent complex information with simple signals? How do you optimize for speed and reliability? Shannon formalized it 100 years later. I figured it out by counting type.
Morse Code Workshop -- The Original Digital Language
Learn Morse code -- the first digital communication system. On/off, long/short, 1/0. In two hours you will send and receive at 5 words per minute. We use a real telegraph key and sounder. Tip: Learn the rhythm, not the dots and dashes. Your ear learns faster than your eyes.
