I recently switched my workplace and somehow ended up as a frontend developer.

But personally I will stay with Elixir. Actually, I don’t code much in my free time anymore, but I have one bigger project for this year. I aim to build a night vision streaming camera using a Raspberry Pi Zero M and the Nerves Framework. I already got all the hardware parts.

I’ve started to dig into Linux sysadmin topics. The whole area of actually setting up a machine, configuring a proper network, and keeping everything up-to-date and secure while automating most (if not all of this) has been a big blindspot of mine in these past years.

To not blindly learn random things I made it my goal to use a bunch of Raspberry Pis (or ODROIDS) and cluster them using Kubernetes or Nomad, and to do this from scratch (install OS, network etc). I assume that this will touch on all the relevant topics. It’s also a great basis for the homelab I’ve always wanted to build to run a media center and more.

Well it’s been a while, but thanks to pandemic I worked from home, and had a new baby, so my free time was utterly non-existent! My own projects languished so hard… But now I’m back working in person, the little one is becoming self-sufficient, and I’ve learned I hate Rust’s implementation of async… ^.^;

Where Next?
