Back from SF. Published the San Francisco essay. Full reset.

First day back after SF. Published the San Francisco essay on the blog — the longest thing I have written in a while. It captures everything the trip changed in me: how the future stopped feeling abstract, the contradiction of the city, the autonomy of Waymos, the intensity of Google I/O, and the certainty that I want to build something real enough to exist physically one day.

Also got back into the Ryva and Silway flow. Distribution outreach, runs, planning. Felt good to be back.
