  • Snippet: My lab is built around TrueNAS, the NAS came first, then the apps, then the containers. I wanted all of it on one screen on a dedicated app so I built Stacklight and I've been living with it daily for months. TrueNAS screen gives you the essentials: pool health, active alerts, replication status, cloud sync tasks and recent scrubs. The real pitch is the whole stack around the NAS. It is not a uniform status grid. Eac…

  • Snippet: Hey, I’m quite new to all of this, but I’ve fallen down the self-hosting rabbit hole over the last few days and I’m having way more fun with it than I expected. I started with Oracle Cloud because I wanted to see how far I could get using the free resources before buying any hardware in farther future. Getting an Ampere instance was probably the hardest part. Kept running into the infamous “Out of capacity” situation…

  • Snippet: The engineering behind the SCA is wild when you dig into it: The 747’s fuselage was reinforced internally with additional structure to handle the shuttle’s weight sitting on top rather than passengers and cargo inside. Two struts (forward and aft attach points) were added on top of the fuselage to mount the orbiter, essentially turning the plane into a flying pylon. The vertical stabilizer got twin endplate fins adde…

  • Snippet: I run a fleet of LLM agents against my GitHub repos: CI failure diagnosis, code review, merge gating, and an operator interaction bot. For a while they all posted as one bot account holding one broad PAT. Aside from the obvious security gap, this came back to bite me in a couple of different ways. First was attribution. Every comment on a PR came from the same identity, so "what process said this?" was an archaeology…

Every house in the village is circular as well, but each one was built in a different way. We did not want to copy the same structure several times, so every house uses its own interior. As with the rest of our server, the houses are not only decorat…
