Hi & welcome to another patch of mine on the internet!
I'm Dom. All of my life I've done nerdy tech stuff and I get a huge amount of joy from tech, elegant systems, and what most would probably consider over-thinking.
After spending longer than average in academia around the Web Science, cryptography and criminology, and working in and around cyber, DevOps and cloud for big tech to unicorn startups, the world of tech work became a little uninspiring. So now I try to do other things, like this! I'm still a massive nerd, but instead of doing tech for tech companies, I nerd for my household: me and my other half.
This incarnation of my personal web stuff is inspired by digital garden and blogs. But I'm also interested in decentralised networks. I'm not a big social media user, but decentralised technologies and selfhosting tickle my brain.
I go through phases of note taking, ranging from a few small daily todos, to plans and processes and setups for tech, as well as thoughts, predictions and occasional rants. Sharing these feels like an intimidating but good thing to do, especially since so much of me is a product of other internet strangers' contributions to the Web.
Combine all this together, and this site is the outcome. Currently you can interact via https://1dom.fun and @itsdom@1dom.fun on the fediverse.
tldr: messy house nerd notes where content and infrastructure are evolving.
