Why this shop exists

Hi — I'm Aisling. I run an AI consultancy in Luxembourg, which means I spend my days telling clients what these tools can and can't do. This shop is where I find out. It's a real store — real cart, real checkout, real shirts — built end to end with the same AI-assisted workflow I advise people on. If something in the process breaks, I'd rather it breaks here than in a client's project.

The shirts are the honest part

Every design is drawn by me, by hand — badly-behaved lettering and all. They're the jokes I make during code review: who is json, is localhost a person or a place?, vulnerability as a service. If you've ever demoed fromlocalhost:3000, they're probably for you.

You really don't have to buy anything

Browse as long as you like. Shirts are printed on demand and shipped from within Europe — nothing sits in a warehouse, nothing gets wasted. If a design makes you grin, wonderful. If not, thanks for the visit.

About the making

The drawings are original, human work. The code and some of the copy were produced with AI assistance — prompt and pray, after all — but a human, me, reviews and is responsible for everything that ships. That's not a disclaimer; it's the whole point of the experiment.
