I have never been particularly good at staying inside one box.

HOW I ENDED UP HERE

Software led me to networking. Networking led me to infrastructure. Infrastructure led me to automation. Automation somehow brought me back to products, AI, security, and a growing pile of experiments.

THINGS I KEEP COMING BACK TO

SOFTWARE / AUTOMATION / INFRASTRUCTURE / SECURITY / SELF-HOSTING / IOT / PRODUCT / AI / MAKING UNNECESSARY THINGS UNNECESSARILY COMPLICATED

HOW I LIKE TO WORK

Start with what is actually getting in the way. Understand the moving parts. Build the smallest useful thing. Then keep the parts that work and remove the rest.

OUTSIDE THE TERMINAL

Most of this gets built somewhere between work, family time, and being a dad. The terminal is still there after everyone goes to sleep.

CURRENT RABBIT HOLES

Home server infrastructure, useful automations, local AI, and figuring out which problems deserve a custom tool.
