Alex Ewerlöf Notes is a personal blog where a working software engineer and systems thinker publishes essays on technology, architecture, and the way the industry talks about itself. Rather than news roundups, it offers long-form arguments built from hands-on experience, with a focus on separating durable engineering practice from passing enthusiasm.
The site’s core content includes technical evaluations of AI systems, critiques of hype cycles, and reflections on software design and reliability. A representative piece dissects the short-lived Jev phenomenon, examining its classifier-based approach, schema-validation loops, and the architectural limits of so-called System 1 AI compared with conventional LLMs.
Readers who benefit most are engineers, architects, and technical leads who want a skeptical second opinion on trending tools, plus anyone trying to judge whether current AI claims are substantive. The writing assumes some familiarity with software concepts, so newcomers may need background reading first.
A practical suggestion is to start with the AI critique essays and then browse the broader archive on systems and engineering judgment. Comments and subscription options let readers follow new posts. Overall, it is a useful source for critical thinking about technology rather than quick tutorials.
