To review the history of my ~/.plan file and see progress over time, you can see the history on the Starfort Source Vault.
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
- Resolved a bug in the Steam DevKit Client that prevented it from running on X11 vs Wayland
- 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
- Start learning about embedded development. I’ve got a strong history in C on constrained systems through my hobby game programming, and I think I want to pivot away from DevSecOps into embedded development. I’ve got some STM32 and Arduino equipment coming, and I’m going to start working through a series of projects.
- 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.
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.
