The ATproto concept still fascinates me (mostly because I never got to learn it well enough). I dream about a future LinkedIn alternative where the users would own their data and subscribe/announce tags and searchers/recruiters would only find announced tags.

A new post on why I started up a new blog and some of the mechanics around it. I already covered some of that with bsky posts but figured I'd pull it together. Mostly wrote this for LinkedIn. joe.dev/posts/thinki...

FWIW, I had enough of the proton-bridge and compiled it for illumos. And guess what, apparently it works (it does not support Fido2, though). I can receive mail - check I can send mail - check From a MUA of my choice. I'm as happy as ever. github.com/tnorlin/prot... #illumos #homelab #proton

The moment we all have been waiting for a long time now. I still haven't made the switch to UniFi OS Server, though, but another reason for that now I guess.

My son's 13th birthday happens tomorrow. I don't think he's been expecting to find his present like this when he wakes up tomorrow...

At least consider moving the storage one shelf lower (cooler air). A week ago I looked into this acinfinity.com/closet-room-... as a way to cool my closet, but in my case I had almost 5 degrees C cooler near ground and it was enough for me.

Kubecon is over and I'm up in the air. I've had so much fun and it's really an energy boost to meet with y'all! But there's so many I wanted to see, but ran out of time (between visiting booths, attending talks and socializing). I look forward to Barcelona #kubecon

The theme for day 2 of keynotes. Digital sovereignty (and AI). It feels like a well selected subject due to the currently ongoing events around the world

Tony Norlin @tnorlin.se · 24/03/2026

At the keynotes. I hope Nvidia's open source movement eventually will benefit also individual end users. I.e. consumer GPU's

I worried if the upcoming KC were to be consumed by anything AI (especially since I've heard about popular speakers being rejected), but the schedule still seem to cover many topics. I'll be missing you at KC - I hope for a speedy recovery after the surgery so you'll be back on track soon! 🏃‍♀️🚴‍♀️

#4 is especially helpful. Reminds of trying to pass through a random AI quarterback (chatbot) during an attempt to get hold of a living customer support agent.

Tony Norlin @tnorlin.se · 18/02/2026

I'm well aware of that, but I don't want to accept things will be way worse. One of the positive(?) outcomes is that companies may have to start selling updates (might even refactor existing codebase for performance) for their existing hardware when they can't sell new.

Tony Norlin @tnorlin.se · 18/02/2026

I've been looking at the Dasung for ~5 years... but I've waited for a proper retailer.. now when RAM and storage skyrocket anyway perhaps it's about time to pull the trigger anyway?

Some of the very best talks (and I'm certain that the atmosphere is better there) seem to happen at Cloud Native Rejekts so I really hope to make it there!

Or just API anything. I remember when BeautifulSoup was the best tool at hand to make an "API" call.

And meanwhile, the bio "hackers" line up to buy implants connected to 7G running a subscription based LLM in an attempt to outsource the thinking.

Still, a bit of luxury these days that old hardware still get improvements.
