Why this blog?
- Write to learn. Turning vague hunches into words forces clarity.
- Pay it forward. I learnt backend craft from generous strangers’ posts; time to add my brick to the wall.
- Build a reference. When on-call Mohab forgets an arcane SQL tweak at 3 a.m., blog-post Mohab will have documented it.
Off-hours
Weight-room at 6 a.m. four days a week.
