How I engineered an ad-free Montessori flashcard platform for my children using Svelte 5, local Intel Arc GPU inference, and multi-tier AI orchestration.
Why I stepped away from technical blogging, how AI-augmented workflows solved the drafting bottleneck, and what to expect as I document modern engineering transformation.
Overcoming kernel netfilter forwarding bottlenecks to achieve line-rate gigabit throughput on resource-constrained embedded router hardware.
A deep dive into mitigating queue latency under saturation using modern Smart Queue Management algorithms (CAKE and fq_codel) in embedded Linux.
Software engineering standards for clean code: managing cognitive load, avoiding monolithic lambda chains, and balancing declarative functional programming with long-term codebase maintainability.
Designing cost-effective, secure, and isolated hybrid build infrastructure using Docker daemon sandboxing, local image layer caching, and dynamic job execution.
Architecting multi-tunnel WAN split routing using Linux kernel routing tables, connection packet marking, and dynamic DNS-driven IP sets.
Defence-in-depth architecture before managed tunnels: protecting origin servers against direct-to-IP bypass attacks using netfilter firewall whitelisting and mutual TLS authentication.
