Rebuilding the home NAS, slowly
After three years the old box finally started throwing disk errors. This time I went with a mirrored pool, fewer drives, and a much quieter case. A few notes on what worked and what I would skip next time.
Jp-nube
Notes on tools, reading, and small weekend projects.

Mostly essays this season, plus two long novels I kept putting off. Short thoughts on each, and the one I would recommend to anyone who asks.

Two months in. The first week was painful, the second was fine, and now going back to a regular layout feels strange.
