To review the history of my ~/.plan file and see progress over time, you can see the history on github.

These days I’m mostly focused on my day job, which means I won’t publish a lot of personal code, but the good news is that most of my work is open source on Repo1, and you can follow me there.

Recent Progress

Completed a Support Firefighter academy, graduating several Marion county support firefighters
Midway through a Suppression Firefighter academy, getting ready to graduate 3 new suppression firefighters
Abandoned the synology DSM API automation efforts. It’s undocumented hot garbage.

Specific Plans

Plan and implement a distributed storage network for myself and my relatives. One of us recently suffered a catastrophic data failure on their NAS and there were no backups. This was a serious wake-up call that RAID in one location is not enough, so we’re taking steps towards geographically distributed replicated backups.
Publish my RFC on Decentralized Claim-Based Professional Credentials and Trust Attestations, aka, “how we can use the crypto web of trust to solve the AI slop hiring problem in our job market”. I’ve been sleeping on this to see if I still like the idea, and some parts of it have not grown on me, but I think the idea is worth talking about.
Resolve a couple of bugs in the Steam DevKit Client, now that we’ve gotten guidance on how to contribute changes back. I’m at least going to solve the problem where the client doesn’t even run on recent X ubuntu installations. (Wayland can suck it.)
Do some things with the kubernetes homelab, letsencrypt, synology, and …. things

Musings

When I was younger, I could remember anything, whether it had happened
or not; but my faculties are decaying now and soon I shall be so I
cannot remember any but the things that never happened. It is sad to
go to pieces like this but we all have to do it.
