The [[:Category:Technical Systems|technical]] work covers [[CLI]] tooling, [[Nvim]] configuration, [[VPS]] management, [[Dotfiles]], and [[Runbooks]] for when things go wrong. [[:Category:Field Operations|Out in the field]], it's the [[Field Kit]], the [[Motorcycle]], [[FPV Drones]], and keeping an eye on [[Weather]].
== Fieldwork ==


[[:Category:Knowledge Work|Knowledge work]] means [[Sensemaking Systems]], [[Creative Principles]], and [[Habits]] that compound. The [[:Category:Creative Practice|creative practice]] spans [[Journalism]], [[Dataviz]], and [[Outdoor Flash Lighting]].
