  1. New quarter new view

    I did a reflection piece last week, and I'm feeling a bit defeated and sluggish at the moment. I'd like to be optimistic and put a sort of plan together.

    I think one thing I have to work more seriously on is automation and resilience. I have too many routines …

  2. Progress slows and learning sputters

    Reflection is important and recognizing failures is just as important as recognizing success. In the last few weeks, I've built a routine for some pieces but have seen some things fall away, and I'd like to retrench a bit.

  3. Learning and planning

    So, I've done some learning for cloud and Kubernetes, and I've circled back through my content notes and I have ideas on what I'd like to do going forward. I think I need to figure out the early history of Kubernetes, and maybe even talk about where Docker came from …

  7. Struggles with a few things

    I'm struggling a bit with focus and output, or at least more than I feel I should be. I've done two prep tests so far, and while I'm not quite through all the material, I'm still below where I think I should be at this point.

    I've also struggled a …

  8. Raspberry Pi not dead

    The Pi-Zero W that had been my PiHole server is not dead like I thought it was. The zero w wasn't showing any lights, which led me to believe something had gone wrong. Well, something was wrong but I now know likely its a card corruption rather than a physical …

  9. Small steps are progress

    So, its been a couple weeks almost, and there is a bit of progress. I've deployed a new 1Gbps switch to replace an ancient hub, configured and started to deploy a new WiFi 6 access point for evaluation, and have done some physical cleaning to boot. It doesn't feel like …
