52 years, 2 months, 10 days old - and for the first time ever, in a fit of insomnia, I've added basic authentication to a webpage via OpenID via my lab Keycloak server, running on my home Kubernetes cluster via 4 Raspberry Pis. Took about 5 minutes.

An agent emailed me the "perfect" contract role today. Senior/Lead DevSecOps Engineer, one year contract, outside IR35, and totally my skillset. Sent my CV and got the job spec. It's perfect except for: "working APAC hours: 00:00–09:00 CET".

LOL! Brother I'm 52 years old. Are you trying to kill me?

I'll use this or my Ergodox EZ depending on where I'm at.
