Hi! This is my first dispatch.
The section exists because long-form blog posts are the wrong shape for the things I think about but never quite turn into a post - the half-formed observations, the thing I learned while fixing something else, the quiet refactor of a position I held for years.
Posts are the long answer to a question. Dispatches are the question itself, posted before I have the answer.
