About Asymmetric

We analyze real system failures to extract the hidden assumptions that caused them.

The best engineers learn from failures they never experienced. Asymmetric gives readers an information advantage — understanding what went wrong, why it mattered, and how to see it coming.

Every breakdown follows the same structure: what happened, what everyone assumed, why those assumptions failed, and the transferable rule you can apply to your own systems.

No hype. No clickbait. Just incident-grade clarity.
