The Shrine
Homelab hardware builds, AI experiments, infrastructure deep dives, and lessons learned from shipping real systems.
A deep dive into building an AI-powered CLI. How we analyze staging diffs, optimize context windows for local latency, and track developer momentum with zero cloud lock-in.
Why emergency room cash requirements are a catastrophic systemic failure, and how we engineered cryptographic CarePass tokens and automated itemized bill auditing.
Hardware teardown of our dedicated edge cluster: PCIe bifurcations, NVMe write-endurance tuning, OPNsense CARP failovers, and WireGuard site-to-site bridges.
Step-by-step blueprint for deploying hardened reverse proxies, configuring CSP headers, and mitigating brute-force and scraping bots without bloated CDNs.
