As and engineer, sometimes getting started is the hardest part. But there are high quality, open source templates for almost anything in the documentation process available. I wish initiatives like The Good Docs Project would be more popula

I genuinely thought this link was about escaping a standardized steel shipping container, something I recently had to seriously consider. In that regard a disappointing click. I also wrote my own docker-like containerization code for educat

Agree on the lack of style. I think it would be nice to give the user agent at least a hint in the form of a color map. Images can be inlined by the user agent.

Did a simple Paxos implementation a while ago which I turned into educational code, well documented and coming with a talk and a workshop. May it be useful for anyone wanting to learn about distributed locking from first principles. Code:

For everyone trying to find out what the main product is: Portmaster seems to be a local Pihole kind of thing which injects itself into the DNS resolution locally. The website could be better at explaining that and general discoverability.
