Hey there👋
I'm Mutasim.
I write software and read a lot of philosophy and theology. Most people find this combination odd. I find it natural. The questions are different but the shape of thinking is the same.
Outside the codebase, I spend time in my lab building things that seem worth building. Whether they were necessary is a question I usually answer after the fact.
What I care about
🛠️Code & Systems🏛️Philosophy📿Theology✍️Writing
On my mind lately
Aristotle's Metaphysics and Ibn Rushd's commentary on it, whether distributed consensus is fundamentally a philosophical problem, and what distinguishes a good abstraction from a merely convenient one.
