🚀 Designing GenAI for Scale

Standard Redis caching fails with messy queries. I built a 3-layer pipeline to fix this:

1️⃣ Regex: Strips noise.

2️⃣ SymSpell: Fixes typos.

3️⃣ spaCy: Lemmatizes intent.

Result: Varied inputs resolve to one cache key.

Weekend experiment: built a notification system with ntfy + Linux cron in my Proxmox lab.

Now my servers and Nifty 50 market updates send alerts directly to my phone, so I don’t miss important events while staying focused on work.

Finally organised my Python environments🐍

Moved unused 45 GB swap on Debian to /𝘮𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘢/𝘱𝘺𝘴𝘱𝘢𝘤𝘦, installed 𝗣𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗻 𝟯.𝟳 → 𝟯.𝟭𝟰, and organised interpreters + venvs in one place.

Added a couple of Bash scripts and .bashrc shortcuts to manage everything easily

Weekend Project: Raspberry Pi 5 + Pi-hole setup for network-wide ad blocking ⛔

Working well so far using EasyList & StevenBlack lists, but still misses a few ads.
Next: HTTPS ad blocking + DNS automation across devices.

Started my Proxmox VE journey by turning an old laptop into a homelab + personal music cloud using Jellyfin 🎧

Later added an Nginx Proxy Manager gateway to host multiple HTTPS services on one static IP.

Experience teaches a lot — but structured re-learning builds mastery.💻🚀
After 3 years of dev work, I deeply re-learned Python:
✅ Theory
✅ Notes
✅ Practice
✅ Documentation
Strongly recommend revisiting basics!

🚀 Just published my first PyPI package

A simple @runtime decorator to track:
✅ Execution time
✅ Peak & occupied memory
✅ Memory freed after execution

Try it with:

🚀 OOP is like making dolls!

🧸 Class = Mold (Blueprint)
🎭 Object = Doll (A unique creation shaped by the mold)
🎨 Methods = Customization (Hair, clothes, accessories)
💡 OOP = Mold → Unique Dolls → Customization
That’s how we build reusable code!
