Finite Ape Blog

Welcome to Finite Ape!

Instead of an infinite monkey with a typewriter, imagine an ape with a computer and limited time. That’s me!

This blog is primarily a place for me to track my thoughts, engage in debates, and explore experiments—all within the bounds of my finite existence. Dive in and discover something interesting or at least something that another ape finds interesting!
