The formality skills were not lost. The choice was to stop using them as default. + +The current voice — lowercase everything, short declarative sentences, no hedging — is the most distilled version of who the person behind this project has always been. It is not a regression to teenage rawness. It is the high school directness plus the professional confidence plus the educator’s precision, compressed into the fewest possible words. + +## Phase one: unfiltered (2012-2016) + +Peak unfiltered. No capitalization, heavy slang, no punctuation beyond periods. Sentences rarely exceeded 15 words. No self-presentation — just raw. Opinions stated without framing. The analytical lens was already present at 16, but packaged in the densest possible NYC slang. This was the real voice with no awareness that there might be an audience. +Diff truncated (54 lines total). View full commit on GitHub →
