It gets argued into existence, one bad idea at a time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I set out to build a visual identity for acogdev, I knew the general feeling I was after: something that felt earned rather than polished, grounded in the idea that the journey matters more than the destination. That&amp;rsquo;s a concept I&amp;rsquo;ve carried from the Stormlight Archive — &lt;em&gt;journey before destination&lt;/em&gt; — and it quietly shapes how I think about most things I build.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>AI Eval Framework</title><link>https://acogdev.com/projects/ai-eval-framework/</link><pubDate>Sun, 01 Sep 2024 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://acogdev.com/projects/ai-eval-framework/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Brief description of the project.

I write about the things I&amp;rsquo;m building, breaking, and figuring out — from code and AI tools to print designs and whatever else pulls my attention.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is a space to think out loud and share what I&amp;rsquo;m learning along the way.&lt;/p&gt;
