<p>To review the history of my <code>~/.plan</code> file and see progress over time, you can see <a target="_blank" rel="noopener" href="https://github.com/akesterson/akesterson.github.io/commits/main/now/index.html">the history on github</a>.</p>
<p>These days Im mostly focused on my day job, which means I wont publish a lot of personal code, but the good news is that most of my work is open source on Repo1, and you can <a target="_blank" rel="noopener" href="https://repo1.dso.mil/akesterson/dotfiles/-/blob/main/.plan.md">follow me there</a>.</p>
<h2 id="Recent-Progress"><a href="#Recent-Progress" class="headerlink" title="Recent Progress"></a>Recent Progress</h2><ul>
<li>Completed a Support Firefighter academy, graduating several Marion county support firefighters</li>
<li>Midway through a Suppression Firefighter academy, getting ready to graduate 3 new suppression firefighters</li>
<li>Abandoned the synology DSM API automation efforts. Its undocumented hot garbage.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="Specific-Plans"><a href="#Specific-Plans" class="headerlink" title="Specific Plans"></a>Specific Plans</h2><!-- personal .plan here -->
<ul>
<li>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 were taking steps towards geographically distributed replicated backups.</li>
<li>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”. Ive 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.</li>
<li>Resolve a couple of bugs in the Steam DevKit Client, now that weve gotten guidance on how to contribute changes back. Im at least going to solve the problem where the client doesnt even run on recent X ubuntu installations. (Wayland can suck it.)</li>
<li>Do some things with the kubernetes homelab, letsencrypt, synology, and …. things</li>
</ul>

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