I'm a life rookie and a forever apprentice planning on how to live freely in this mad world.
I Love descentralized systems/infrastructure.

I backed up the scariest file I own(a plaintext export of every password I have) to S3, without ever holding a key that can decrypt it. Public-key encryption means the worst-case leak is just ciphertext.

My wife was going to do the job applications alone. It became a joint effort across three devices. localStorage stopped fitting, so I replaced it with a stdlib server behind tailscale serve. Shared state on every device with no certs to renew.

Once SSH actually worked end-to-end, I went to the Tailscale workshop. Left with a 2-node ASG of subnet routers on AWS โ no bastion, no public IPs, no SSH keys on instances. Zero trust, zero config, earned in Terraform.

SSH hung at KEX_ECDH_REPLY. tailscale ping said the peer was healthy.
The bug: eth0 and tailscale0 had the same MTU โ no room for WireGuard's 80B overhead. Small packets squeaked through. SSH's key exchange vanished.

Local `make ci`: 212 passed. Remote CI: ModuleNotFoundError on every test.
A `https://t.co/rCoQoQgdG4` sys.path shim had been cheating for months โ fresh GitHub runner has no shim.
Post-refactor hygiene checklist, three drifts, one commit.

I asked an AI agent to help secure my data. Its first move was to read the file with all my secrets.
I built a 4-layer defense to make sure no agent touches sensitive data again โ without breaking my workflow.

I pressed v in tmux copy mode and nothing happened. Vi mode was on. It should have worked. It did not.
One afternoon later: split panes, vi-mode copy, clipboard integration, branded status bar.
