  • This really is the way.

    It goes beyond documentation too - it allows me to migrate to new hosts or to easily automate upgrading the OS release version.

    I have a docusaurus site for my homeland and I have ansible and terraform generate files for the docs so I don’t have to record anything. Some of the stuff I note down:

    • DNS leases
    • General infra diagrams
    • IP info
    • Host info

    Synology seems to be the go to brand for most folks. They have a solid OS and take their security pretty seriously.

    If you want to have more fun you could grab a small x86 NAS (ugreen/terramaster) and flash it with truenas.




  • I don’t think you need to feel silly. Programming languages are tools. Some are better suited for jobs than others.

    AoC is good for two skills:

    1. Learning how to solve problems.
    2. Learning how to process and model data.

    With python #2 is no longer difficult. In the past I’ve used Rust or C and I spent way more effort on #2 than #1.

    I think the key is what is your goal in doing this? I like the puzzles but have limited time so I use python to solve them quickly and be on my way. If I had more time i would have liked to learn / try go this year.
