Epiktistes is my home in the Fediverse. It is an instance of Ktistec, a single-user ActivityPub server like Mastodon, but with fewer users and fewer commits. Here's my introduction (last updated early-2025).
I wrote a series of posts about optimizing the performance of the Ktistec server, its build time, and its executable size: part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, and part 5.
Some things I regularly write about, organized by hashtag:
I also wrote some #pointfreeverse.
latest project… we got my wife’s parents bikes out of storage where they’d been collecting dust for about 25 years, put new tires on them, tuned them up, cleaned them up and went riding!
@rpilocator great work! i snagged a raspberry pi zero 2 w off adafruit today after catching notice that it was in stock!
whoa! i managed snag a raspberry pi zero 2 w. as fate would have it, i had all necessary prerequisites in place when i noticed availability: 1) existing, verified adafruit account, 2) my wallet and credit card near me. i've lost out on both counts before...
this is the second day i woke to find out they were in stock and are now again out of stock...
the first thing you realize when you set up a pi hole is how much trackable noise all of your devices emit.
Dune predicted AI getting banned but it'd be funny if instead of some all out robot war it'd just be because of copyright violations.
it's interesting how we remember things. i just found myself typing the first few characters of a password i haven't used in 15+ years. it's surprising i remembered it, and not at all obvious what triggered that set of physical movements...
My hypothesis—and i'm open to counter-arguments—is that the people who are most optimistic about the state of AI tools that write code, don't write code day to day. And that they see the cryptic output that these tools generate, and they think it looks a lot like the cryptic code software developers write. QED.
What I personally really want is a tool that can look at some code and explain to me what it does. That would be useful!
are SMB and NFS really still the “state of the art” in file sharing on Linux? I feel like I’m back in the early 90s…
