I run a small homelab and a handful of side projects, and I write down what breaks. Most posts here start the same way. Something behaved badly, the obvious explanation was wrong, and the measurement said something else.

Mostly I care whether a system stays legible. If I can’t explain it six months from now, I’ll mis-operate it. So I care about clear names, honest defaults, dashboards that show state instead of edges, and docs that get corrected instead of re-derived.

Rules I hold myself to here. Every number traces to a file, a commit, or a command I ran. If I got it wrong the first time, the post says so. Length isn’t credibility.

This site is plain Astro, one stylesheet, no analytics, no tracking, no newsletter popup. There’s an RSS feed and nothing else to sign up for.
