melting butter transports me to that small flat in Glasgow and a feeling of security and love.

An enduring childhood memory is of my mother making a vast vat of ghee, slowly melting 35lbs of butter and skimming off the impurities to yield liquid gold. It filled our apartment with an overwhelmingly comforting nutty sweet aroma, and even today the smell of

Wagyu beef with Le Gavroche Bรฉarnaise sauce was the Valentine dinner I cooked for Susan, served with a very fancy bottle of BV.

Sadly I am bracing myself for about 20 Reform seats in the Scottish parliment.

talks.cam : Automatically Formally Verified Hardware using Aristotle

I am giving a talk about automatic formal verification of computer hardware using Harmonic's Aristotle system at the University of Cambridge at their CS department on Thursday 26 February 2026 at 2PM in room FW26. The talk is open to the public.

and as someone who grew up with the excitement of a teenage 6502 hacker this is the first time I have felt that same level of energy and revolution again. I'm not in this game to be a spectator, so if you want to shape the future please join us.

Iโ€™m thrilled to share that Iโ€™ll be attending POPL 2026, and even more excited that Harmonic is officially a sponsor this year. At Harmonic we are leveraging the power of the Lean 4 theorem prover to push the boundaries of AI and formal verification.

I've completed five weeks of work at my new company Harmonic. It's intense, fast paced, highly engaging and I love being back at the whiteboard. If we succeed in our mission "Theorems For Free" will have a new meaning.

This is your routine reminder that "program" and "algorithm" are not synonyms. A program *goes*; an algorithm *works*.

They try to pull a fast one on you by overdignifying shit programs as "algorithms". They don't work. They're not algorithms. They're wrong, not you.

suspect the worst of others rather than best of others. For me the pleasure of working on a problem with someone at a whiteboard (expecting interviews) is a life affirming experience. My trademark stoic unconvinced face and raised eyebrow at ideas that don't make sense to me is

On Monday for the first time in four years I will start to work in an office five days a week, like I have done for all of my career until COVID-19. I've been looking forward to this day, having never liked working from home and having seen all the problems and issues that occur in a remote first
