Second Brain

Things I worked out once and don’t want to work out again. Written for me in six months, who will have forgotten all of it.

Public because notes you can’t search aren’t notes. If something here saves you time too, good.

Sections

infra	The server. One script deploys six repos behind Caddy — how it works, what runs where
homelab	Devices, the CYD LeetCode display, media stack
projects	LimeDB — distributed KV store in Go. Chess — bitboard engine + real-time app
site	This website: architecture, CMS, build and deploy, resume pipeline
dev	Reusable technique — Go service layout, Mac setup gotchas
career	Prep and job tooling
meta	How this works — conventions for writing here

Start here

• Something’s down → what runs where, then the deploy script
• New machine → Mac setup gotchas
• New Go service → the layout everything follows

Notes are searchable with ⌘K. Rationale lives inline with the thing it explains, not in a separate pile.
