Slipsheet: PDFs That Read Like Part of the Page

In audit and assurance, the work often arrives as a PDF, and embedding one in an article has always meant an ugly iframe or a "click to download." So we built Slipsheet, an inline PDF reader that reads like part of the page, and open-sourced it under MIT. The part I care about is underneath: every embedded PDF degrades to a plain download link that works with no JavaScript and keeps working even if the viewer or the whole project disappears. Content that outlives its code. #opensource #webdev

Launching TeachMetrics

TeachMetrics is live. Self-hosted analytics for Teachable school owners: revenue, cohorts, students, discounts, and AI you can question, all running on your own server with your own data. Founding price is $100 per school per year. The license is the unusual part: you get the source, every version you receive keeps working even if you never renew, and the code contains no kill switch. You can verify that yourself, because you have the source. teachmetrics.co

Independence Was Always a Proxy

We have spent years signing off on internal audit's use of the word "independence." Here is the uncomfortable part: internal auditors are not independent in the sense the word carries, and AI is about to make that impossible to keep saying. The word was always a proxy for the thing we actually wanted, objectivity you can prove. On what the Standards really claim, how the IIA has quietly half-conceded, and the receipt-based architecture that should replace a borrowed word. #internalaudit #AI #IIA

One Auditor, Two Tribes

My internal audit team's training budget splits in half every year: half to the IIA, half to ISACA. Two memberships, two certifications, two of everything, for a job that has fused into one while the institutions stayed split. Why does the profession still run two tribes? On how the split made sense once, why AI is ending the case for it, the four futures ahead, and who really holds the power to change it. #internalaudit #IIA #ISACA #AI #GRC

Curated, not algorithmic — even when it's YouTube

Assurcast's promise is "curated, not algorithmic." This month I taught it to bring in YouTube, the most algorithmic medium there is. Audit and assurance videos now embed and play in the feed, the AI summarizes the video description, sharing uses the real thumbnail, and every "Watch on YouTube" button points back to the creator. A dozen tracked slices about keeping the content and leaving the recommendation engine at the door. #assurcast #howiai #claudecode #indiehacker

The Prompt Is Not a Security Boundary

Most AI privacy stories start with the prompt. TeachMetrics' AI features assume the opposite: the model is an untrusted SQL author. It can only see 24 aggregate views with no student PII by construction. Its SQL passes an allow-list validator, runs in a read-only transaction, and every answer shows exactly what was sent. Prompt injection's blast radius shrinks to 'a different aggregate query ran.' The prompt is UX. The boundary is code.

The Correction of Error

Every system makes mistakes. What separates a trustworthy one is what it does next. A Correction of Error is a structured, no-blame admission: what broke, why the system allowed it, and what changes so the whole class of bug can't return. In our harness the AI files them unprompted, against a written standard, including failures nobody would have caught. Prevention isn't maturity. Honest correction is.

Humanity in the loop

We talk a lot about “humans in the loop.” But humans get tired. Humans rubber-stamp. Humans become bottlenecks. The real challenge is preserving humanity in the loop: truthfulness, accountability, craftsmanship, humility, and trust. I explore how a single AI agent can build and review its own work when guided by shared tenets and honest retrospection.

How impeccable.style sharpened the way I ship Assurcast

For two days, every UI decision on Assurcast started with an opinionated design agent reviewing my actual code. A dozen cards shipped: Restrained color strategy, real type ramps, a mobile sticky bar, 44pt touch targets, source-byline emphasis above each story title. The best moment? When I rejected its biggest finding and it helped me document why. impeccable.style by Paul Bakaus. AI as design collaborator with strong views, not a stylebot. #howiai #claudecode #design #indiehacker

My first user harness is coming along. Some rough edges need specification, but the process appears to be working nicely.
