When developers debate which software is most complex , they usually mean technical complexity: architecture, performance constraints, failure tolerance. But there is a second dimension equally worth examining: human complexity, meaning the political, cultural, legal, and social forces acting on the people who build and maintain the software. Kernels, web browsers, and ERP systems make for a…
In Part 1 , I set up a homelab on my gaming rig: Podman Quadlets, Headscale, Immich, Ollama. Everything accessible over a private Tailnet. But here's the thing: explaining Tailscale for access to Immich to my mom and sibling isn't happening. They just want to see the family photos. So some services need to be public. The question is how. Why Not Cloudflare Tunnel The obvious answer is Cloudflare…
I didn't set out to build a homelab. I just wanted to self-host my photos and Immich made this choice more compelling. The thing is, Immich needs a GPU for face recognition and renting cloud GPU felt wasteful. Oh look, I already have a machine with a GPU (RTX 3070Ti with 8GB VRAM) sitting on my desk: a gaming rig running Bazzite . It plays my Steam library, and now it serves a homelab. Along the…

laziness has played a strange role in human progress throughout history. the ancient greeks looked down on manual labor—not because they were morally weak, but as a matter of philosophy. to them, free time represented the best state of human life, allowing deep thinking and pursuit of truth. of course, this ideal depended entirely on slavery; while philosophers debated ideas in public squares,…
The first time I bought and started playing Inkulinati , I was immediately drawn into its unique premise - medieval European margin art coming to life in tactical combat. Two weeks of playing has not only entertained me but sparked an idea: what if we applied this ingenious format to Southeast Asia's rich tradition of shadow puppetry? Wayang kulit , with its intricate puppets and complex…
