This is a MediaWiki instance that I am using as a personal archive and “second brain” so I can both work in public and also remember the things I am [[Learning]] or [[Reading]], and share them with my friends and robot colleagues.

Tended after the fall

Personal knowledge base. Second brain. Working in public.

Learning what I can, Reading what I find, tracking Questions worth pondering.

Domains

The technical work covers CLI tooling, Nvim configuration, VPS management, Dotfiles, and Runbooks for when things go wrong. Out in the field, it's the Field Kit, the Motorcycle, FPV Drones, and keeping an eye on Weather.

Knowledge work means Sensemaking Systems, Creative Principles, and Habits that compound. The creative practice spans Journalism, Dataviz, and Outdoor Flash Lighting.

Preparedness ties it together—Runbooks, Emergency Communications, Supply Chain thinking. And daily life: Coffee, Food, the Hudson Valley, and Quantified Self tracking.

Active

Receiving weather directly from orbit

NOAA Satellites — receiving satellite photographs with amateur equipment

Adventure touring in the field

FPV Drones — flying, building, finding spots in the Hudson Valley

Listening to the spectrum

Ham Radio — Frequencies, Meshtastic, HackRF, Flipper Zero

Personal APIs — building the personal panopticon for Quantified Self

Reference

Technical — CLI workflows, Nvim, scripts, solutions worth remembering

Journalism — investigation methods, FOIA, Source Handling, Data Journalism

Projects — work logs, collaboration notes, things in progress

Runbooks — emergency procedures for vehicle, digital security, medical

Thinking

Influences & Thinking — stewart brand, stephenson, ram dass

Appropriate Technology — right tool, right scale, specific problem

Practice & Presence — be here now as method

Hacker Culture — curiosity as virtue, building over consuming
