A network problem that looked like a different network problem
Replace this with the symptom, the misleading clue, the actual cause, and the check that would have found it sooner.
04 / The collection
Notes.
Things worth remembering, things worth sharing, and things I would prefer not to learn twice.
Things I learned twice.
A note can be three paragraphs, one command with context, a troubleshooting trail, or a diagram. Publishing small useful fragments is the point.
The command I keep looking up
A compact reference page can be more useful than a long post. Add a tested command, assumptions, output, and the one dangerous edge case.
How I made a recurring task less recurring
A short automation story: what happened repeatedly, where judgment was still needed, and what the tool safely handled.
A sanitized postmortem
Timeline, contributing conditions, recovery, and the changes that reduce recurrence—with identifiers and sensitive topology removed.
What I’m doing now.
A “now” page is a low-effort way to keep the site human. Update this every few months; stale dates are more honest than pretending it updates itself.

One or two sentences about a project, system, tool, or piece of art currently taking up space in your head.

A technology, subject, book, or problem you are exploring without needing to claim expertise in it.

Things I use.
A selective setup page—not an inventory. List only tools you would genuinely recommend or enjoy discussing.
Hardware
Workstation, networking gear, cameras, drawing tools, or one unusually good keyboard.
Replace with your listSoftware
Operating systems, editors, utilities, creative software, and self-hosted tools you actually like.
Replace with your listMethods
Conventions, checklists, documentation habits, or practical rules that survive changes in tooling.
Replace with your listGood corners of the web.
Use this for popular links you send people repeatedly: documentation, tools, communities, media, or odd little sites. Three good links are enough to start.
