Now

This is a Now page, inspired by Derek Sivers and many others.

I'll slowly add more content to this page, but I expect it to be a mix of short and long-term things I'm either working on or interested in.

Updated April 23, 2025 from my home.

Recently (October, 2024) got married!
Living with my Wife and our two cats.
I'm currently working as a DevOps Tech Lead mainly with google cloud, terraform, kubernetes, gitlab-ci/jenkins, ArgoCD (and friends), and ForgeRock.
For my NixOS migration, I built a Windmill http workflow that generates secure passphrases for LUKS and provides them to my servers during boot.
Started a new (Feb 2024) OSS project called silverbullet-ai. It integrates various LLMs with silverbullet.md, the note taking tool.
Started testing out the Ghost plug for SilverBullet. I'm using it to update this /now page, and new articles like Easy Copy on Write.
Migrating my homelab away from hashicorp Nomad to Kubernetes (again) using Talos and Omni.
Thinking of starting a side-gig

Learning more about ML/AI/LLMs and experimenting with them.
I've been on a distributed storage kick recently. Experimenting with GlusterFS, Ceph, Minio, GarageHQ, JuiceFS, MooseFS, SeaweedFS, and others.
- GarageHQ is an awesome object storage (self-hosted S3) and can be distributed across multiple locations.
- MooseFS has been great so far, but I'm having issues with performance due to how the master node works.
