Archive

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. Mediawiki Syntax Guide

I also keep track of Questions I am pondering while riding my Motorcycle or drinking Coffee.

I try to keep track of my Habits.

Supply Chain to document sourcing components and real-world goods.

If I am brave, I will also document my Failures

Technical

CLI workflows, data processing scripts, and solutions worth remembering, also Frequencies for Ham Radio in New York.

My VPS setup, Runbooks for repeated tasks.

Personal APIs

Personal APIs to reuse the panopticon for my own means, as a sort of Quantified Self

Dataviz

D3 experiments, Observable notebooks, and visualization techniques



Journalism

Investigation methods, source management, and story development

FOIA Templates for FOIA Requests

Projects
