I’m Sayed Hamid Fatimi, a software developer by craft, a philosopher by calling, and a lifelong student of truth. With roots in physics and a love for clean, expressive code, I build in JavaScript, TypeScript, React, and Next.js—tools that let ideas take shape in the digital world. Beyond the syntax and structure lies a deeper pursuit. I write to explore the foundations of thought, reason, and reality. My books, The Philosophy of Reason and The Philosophy of Truth, are part of an ongoing journey—an attempt to weave clarity from complexity, and meaning from mystery. This space is where code meets contemplation. You’re welcome to walk the path with me at valeon.blog.
A European robin “sees” Earth’s magnetic field through quantum effects in its eye—an elegant bridge between physics and life. This essay follows how cryptochrome, radical pairs, and entanglement helped launch quantum biology and reframes what it means to navigate.
From Google Maps rerouting entire towns to Amazon Flex unlocking apartment doors, corporations are reshaping our infrastructure and routines—quietly trading our privacy for convenience.
Six days off, a fresh Astro build, and a clean slate for writing: better theming and layout control, first-class LaTeX, and the freedom to ship my own features—because I thought I could code this better myself, and I did.
Sleep isn’t passive—it’s nightly maintenance. Slow-wave and REM rebuild muscle and connective tissue, balance hormones, and flush daytime metabolic waste via the glymphatic system to restore neurotransmission. The payoff: sharper cognition, steadier mood, healthier metabolism, heart, and immunity.
NuScale’s small modular reactors promise more than clean, modular power on the ground—they hint at a future of airborne carriers the size of stadiums, loitering in the skies for months at a time. This post explores how SMR technology could unshackle endurance, transforming not only energy but the architecture of power itself.
“Letting go” has become the modern mantra. Yet if we relinquish all we desire, what remains to root a life? This piece argues for open-handed love—attachment, protection, loyalty—and the chosen weight of responsibility: showing up for one another, guiding and growing together. Is this not what life is about?
Kindness is not weakness or naïveté. It is strength forged through suffering, the power to harm restrained, the beauty of choice made again and again. Unlike niceness, which avoids conflict, kindness endures it—and transforms it.
Investing and trading aren’t opposites so much as different relationships to time. This guide clarifies frames—from scalping to position trading—and argues that most edge is born in ranges, not headlines. Choose your horizon, respect its rules, and let discipline—not drift—set your course.
Back when BitMEX paid maker rebates, I turned ~$30 into ~$2,000 by posting passive liquidity and guarding inventory. This post breaks down the rebate math, spread capture, and kill-switches—and shows how that small-edge discipline connects to “Trading Big Bags,” where structure, not bravado, determines survival.
Capital size should dictate strategy. What works for a $1,000 trader becomes reckless at $10M. The recent $17M loss on Hyperliquid shows how fragile structures — high leverage, linear contracts, and concentration — turn conviction into catastrophe. This essay breaks down why efficiency, not ego, defines survivability, and how inverse contracts, venue distribution, and leverage discipline transform outcomes.
