<p>I've taken it upon myself to continue the development of <a href="https://github.com/sxltd/dendron">Dendron</a>.
I'm working on reducing the overall complexity, upgrading outdated packages, and fixing longstanding bugs.
I've also written a <a href="/notes/qk7p85unpfobuvow0er3108">short post</a> about some of these endeavors.</p>
<h2 id="cicd-site-to-site-vpn">CI/CD; Site-to-Site VPN<a aria-hidden="true" class="anchor-heading icon-link" href="#cicd-site-to-site-vpn"></a></h2>
<p>I have begun the process of migrating old Agola CI/CD jobs to <a href="https://github.com/tektoncd/pipeline">Tekton</a>. However, the deployment requires SSH into edge nodes. I'm experimenting with solutions like <a href="https://github.com/slackhq/nebula">Nebula</a> and <a href="https://github.com/gravitl/netmaker">NetMaker</a> to see if I can simply use a site-to-site VPN instead.</p>
<h2 id="2004scape">2004Scape<a aria-hidden="true" class="anchor-heading icon-link" href="#2004scape"></a></h2>
<p>I have recently learned about <a href="https://github.com/2004Scape/Server">2004scape</a>, so I'm experimenting with deploying it.
I intend to host a late-2004 or early-2005 server, when the changes arrive.</p>
<h2 id="ai-content-generation">AI Content Generation<a aria-hidden="true" class="anchor-heading icon-link" href="#ai-content-generation"></a></h2>
<p>I find it interesting that people (myself included) are willing to consume <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_slop">AI slop</a>, so I'm experimenting with this.
I'm currently running <a href="https://github.com/Zyphra/Zonos">Zonos</a> as part of a custom pipeline for local generation of AI content.</p>

Dendron


I solve infrastructure problems that don't have documented solutions.

I've built production Kubernetes on bare metal with custom observability (full LGTM stack), 
migrated workloads across CPU architectures, and revived abandoned open-source tooling 
by rewriting its build system. Most of my work involves distributed systems, 
production reliability, and the kind of operational complexity where "just use the 
managed service" isn't an option.

~10 years building this stuff. Free and open-source source software enthusiast.
