}After 24+ years in corporate development, I'm now focused on sharing knowledge and exploring the frontier of Web3 technology
Comprehensive courses teaching real-world development skills from decades of experience.
Insights from 24+ years of tinkering, building, and solving complex programming challenges.
Building on the Livepeer network and exploring the cutting edge of decentralized technology.
After decades with various languages, these are the technologies capturing my attention right now
Systems programming and performance-critical applications
Backend services and concurrent applications
Full-stack web development and modern frameworks
Decentralized video infrastructure and Web3 protocols
In 2023, I made the leap from corporate software development to focus on what I'm truly passionate about: teaching others and building on cutting-edge technologies. After 24+ years of solving complex problems, I'm now dedicated to sharing that knowledge through courses, blogging, and exploring Web3.
Sharing insights from 24+ years of building software and recent explorations in Web3
Google's A2UI protocol lets AI agents describe rich, interactive interfaces as safe declarative JSON instead of raw HTML. Here's the architecture, who's running it in production today, and what I think it opens up.
AT Protocol is the identity and data-sync layer under Bluesky, but it's also running production event platforms, blogs, feed builders, and messaging apps that have nothing to do with microblogging. Here's the architecture, the ecosystem, and what's still worth building.
A wider-lens look at July: a full site redesign and SEO audit on mikezupper.com, following Livepeer's move toward an agent platform, continued BlueClaw progress, and starting a real business with my son.
Whether you're interested in programming courses, want to discuss Web3 development, or just want to chat about software engineering, I'd love to hear from you.
