this page is based on this github repo, which explains why having a tos is important. i have written it in my own tone, while trying to keep the essence the same.

for visitors

hi everyone, i hope you’ve realised that you’ve landed yourself in a digital garden, a personal space for learning in public. like how i described on my home page, this isn’t your typical blog, or portfolio website, its an ever changing work in progress. nothing here is truly finished. here, perfectionism takes a back seat, allowing me to focus on sharing what i’ve learned so far.

the things you’ll find here are never set in stone, nor are they meant to be perfect (and even accurate at times). instead it reflects what my interests are and the state of my understanding of different things. the main goal here is not to provide value to others, its an icing on the cake if it does. if we share common interests, feel free to explore, reference, and engage with the content here. feedbacks and sharings are always encouraged – that’s part of the reason why i’m a great supporter of learning in public and being open source.

1. the right to be wrong

i reserve the right to be incorrect or incomplete in this digital garden. time constraints or gaps in knowledge may lead to imperfections, but that’s part of the journey. i welcome your help to refine my ideas.

everything here is a living document, and i’ll amend or update things as my understanding changes. however, i do try to keep older thoughts visible as a record of how my thinking has developed over time.

2. constructive feedback

feel free to share your thoughts, challenge ideas, or even disagree outright. i value critical feedback and find it more useful than empty compliments. suggestions for further reading, viewing, or listening are also welcome.

if you think you could do it better, write your own version and share it. i’d genuinely love to see it.

3. don’t copy, but if you have to, credit and build upon it

i’m a firm believer that nothing in this world is ever original, you just have to steal like an artist. however, the essence of a digital garden is more for yourself than others. similar to how patches don’t solve cracks, short term fixes of copying alone doesn’t bring long term value - to you or others, so build on it and express things in your own way.

for fellow gardeners and digital farmers

kuddos on taking the leap of faith and starting your own garden. this is your second brain — a space outside your mind to store, organise, and connect ideas. if you nurture it well, it will help you grow as a lifelong learner, make unexpected connections, and even lead to new friendships.

however, being a responsible digital farmer comes with a few ground rules to follow and tips to improve your harvest.

1. respect others
