Mainly, I plan to talk about things I find interesting. A lot of my interest center around computers, cars, and photography. I make no claims that I am a professional in these subjects, but I have been learning and practicing with each for over a decade now, and I'd like to share what I've found. I may also write about other subjects that pop up in my life, or things which I do not yet fully understand. I will do my best to categorize these posts appropriately.
I would describe my writing style as "stream of consciousness", which I am not a fan of. As time goes on, you may see me try out different writing styles or formatting. If I like what I came up with, you may see it in the future. Please be patient with me as I learn how to best write to you.
The blog itself is hosted from my home using Ghost on Docker. I use Traefik as my ingress. Traefik converts http requests to https using letsencrypt, and then routes traffic to the internal docker network that Ghost is attached to. My server of choice can be found in a future blog post, but in short it is a gigabyte dual cpu board (Xeon 2680v4) with 180GB of DDR3 RAM and 10TB of RAIDZFS storage.
As for my style, I am still working on the logo for this blog. My current thought is to do a clean SVG render of the initials "JVP" in cursive, but I am not completely sold on anything until I see it. The main colors of the website are an Autumn palette, which is my favorite season. Here are are the details:
- Primary 1: #EAA81B
- Secondary 2: #C95501
- Secondary 1: #7D0000
- Secondary 2: #012C0B
