About Edward Wang
I'm Edward Wang. This site is a set of practical guides for tools I use every day — written, tested, and kept current by hand.
What I Do
My working day runs on plain text. Notes, documentation, this website — all of it lives in Markdown, and has for years, long enough that I've hit most of the dialect differences between renderers and remember which ones bite. I keep a terminal open all day, usually inside tmux, and I write about workflows I actually depend on rather than ones I researched for an afternoon.
Since early 2026 I've also been following the DeepSeek ecosystem closely — models, API, pricing — running the code before I describe it and tracking what changed each time. Before this I spent years writing internal documentation for engineering teams, which is where the habits below come from.
How I Write
A few commitments that hold across the site:
- Every number carries its date. DeepSeek's pricing changed twice in four months; a guide that doesn't say "as of August 16" is describing a product that no longer exists. Mine do.
- I test before I publish. Commands and config blocks on this site have been run, not transcribed from somewhere else.
- Official facts stay separate from my reading of them. When something is self-reported or unverified by a third party, the article says so.
- When I'm unsure, I write that I'm unsure. You'll find "I'd wait for independent numbers" in my benchmarks coverage instead of false certainty.
What's on This Site
Practical guides for tools I use daily: Markdown from basic syntax through dialect quirks, and the DeepSeek ecosystem as it ships and changes. Everything is free to read — no signup, no upsell. The design has changed a few times over the years, but the rule hasn't: short answers first, evidence underneath, and a date on anything that can go stale.
If something here is wrong or outdated, that's on me — corrections are always welcome.
