Now
A short status file for August 2026.
Building
- Publishing this website from the homelab and refining the writing as the projects evolve.
- Hardening a three-layer Caddy design for public, tailnet, and local traffic.
- Maintaining
caddy-tls-file-pair, a custom certificate loader for Caddy. - Improving monitoring for backups, power events, reverse proxies, mail, and the small failures that become large failures if nobody notices.
Learning
- How to make self-hosted infrastructure easier to recover, not merely more elaborate.
- Where containers clarify system boundaries and where they hide too much.
- How far useful documentation can be generated from real configuration without publishing private details.

This page follows the spirit of a /now page: it changes when my attention changes, without pretending to be a complete activity feed.
