Support & infrastructure

Self-hosting and infrastructure notes

Outside machine vision I build infrastructure. The recurring lesson: simple systems survive.

Outside of machine vision I enjoy building infrastructure.

Projects

  • NAS and storage systems
  • Linux servers
  • Docker environments
  • Documentation platforms
  • Local AI tooling
  • Automation utilities

The recurring lesson

Simple systems survive. Complex systems become support cases.

Every layer of cleverness you add is a layer someone has to understand at 2 AM when it breaks. I now optimize for boring, predictable, and recoverable over impressive.
