NLC — Natural Language Compiler
A framework for making LLM-generated code deterministic and verifiable. Each algorithmic step is specified as a domain–range contract: the LLM generates code, the system asserts correctness, and regenerates on failure. The result is a compiler that accepts natural-language algorithm descriptions and produces verified, working programs.
The Periodic Table of Software (PSI)
The thesis that all computational behavior reduces to ~650 structural primitives—analogous to the periodic table's 118 elements yielding millions of compounds. Working prototype: 35 indexed fragments with domain/range contracts, deterministic SHA-256 caching, and 5 orders of magnitude energy savings (2 J/token compile vs. 36 μJ/token serve).
The Future of Software Labor
A book-length research essay analyzing 260 years of labor transitions through the lens of AI-driven automation. Central finding: when a capability becomes cheap, labor migrates one abstraction layer up. Examines SWE-bench benchmarks, Cursor's growth, junior developer employment data, and the 4.8M unfilled cybersecurity roles.
Wireless Sensor Networks for Wildlife
Designed and prototyped sensor nodes using 4-element microphone arrays with 2° angular discrimination, spectrogram-based noise removal, and novel PSD estimation via abstract algebra. Detects poaching activity (gunshots, chainsaws, engines) in real-time across protected habitats. Validated by four major conservation organizations.
