Eric Chou's AI Networking Cookbook inspired me to capture some recent thoughts I've had about using LLMs in the #homelab at https://kd9cpb.com/2026-neteng-homelab. While it’s impossible to predict the future, I couldn’t help but notice how a 20+ year old Fry's Electronics advertisement is a perfect reminder: technology evolves, but some things remain the same!

New Year New Blogpost! https://kd9cpb.com/ccnp-2025 blabs all about my #CCNP #CCNA renewal journey that's due by September. No more #homelab until I stop procrastinating on continuing education classes :)
If you're into the #IPv6 and #ipv6only thing, be sure to check out https://conferences.computer.org/sc-wpub/pdfs/SC-W2024-6oZmigAQfgJ1GhPL0yE3pS/555400a785/555400a785.pdf, we did some pretty sweet stuff at #SC24 using RFC8925 and DNS trickery :)
Completely forgot to put something here earlier the year, my bad!

It's been awhile, but https://kd9cpb.com/roof-upgrade has my most recent #hamr #hamradio #amateurradio adventure for your viewing pleasure!
Had a ton of fun helping to write https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3626203.3670531 about all the RFC8925 fun we had at SC23, come join us at #SC24 to check it out in-person!
Had big plans to update https://kd9cpb.com/linux for #raspberrypi 5 & debian bookworm #hamradio fun, but I should really do spring house cleaning & gardening instead. Made a tiny update, but learning to accept my old blog posts are fading into obsolescence 🙃
Had some fun getting #FT8 magic onto a nearly 20 year old PC at https://kd9cpb.com/wsjtx. It sure looked good running on the square monitor!
I'm not going to create much #homelab and #hamr content in 2024, but what I do end up clicking "publish" on will be a good time :)

It's a Festivus Miracle! Migrated my blog to an OrangePi5 via Cloudflare Tunnel this afternoon, full write-up at https://kd9cpb.com/orangepi5
Can't believehow good Cloudflare free accounts & cheap single-board computers have gotten over the past decade, what a time to be alive!
