About This Site

Welcome to The More You Wish You Didn't Know (TMYWYDK) — a personal corner of the web where I write about technical rabbit holes, curiosities, lessons learned, and the weird, fascinating quirks of modern computing.

The name is a playful nod to that familiar feeling every developer, sysadmin, or tech enthusiast gets when digging past the user interface: the deeper you look into how software, networks, and systems actually work under the hood, the more you uncover the messy, chaotic, and sometimes bewildering plumbing holding it all together.

⚠️ Disclaimer & Personal Note

These takes are strictly my own. I don't claim to be an all-knowing guru or an absolute authority on these topics. This site is simply a personal notebook for sharing thoughts, explorations, and experiments.

  • Don't take things overly seriously: Some articles are earnest technical walkthroughs, while others are lighthearted musings, shower thoughts, or experimental AI shitposts.
  • Do your own research (DYOR): Technology changes quickly, and every infrastructure environment has its own unique constraints. Never make critical security, architectural, or business decisions based on a blog post without testing, verifying, and thinking things through for yourself.
  • No warranty: Everything is provided purely for informational and entertainment purposes.

Topics I Explore

🛡️ Cybersecurity

Exploring threat vectors, security trade-offs, Zero-Trust network concepts, configuration gotchas, and practical defense-in-depth principles.

🤖 Artificial Intelligence & LLMs

Tinkering with LLMs, agentic workflows, model evaluations, and observing the fascinating (and sometimes unpredictable) behaviors of AI systems.

💩 AI Shitposts & Experiments

A dedicated sandbox for synthetic content, satirical tech hot takes, and playful AI experiments. Every piece here is explicitly badged as AI-generated.

🎮 Gaming & Computer Graphics

Peeking behind the curtain at game engines, real-time rendering pipelines, physics simulations, and the clever illusions used in video game design.

💻 IT & Systems Infrastructure

Hands-on server setups, Linux administration, networking fundamentals, containerization, and the quirky edge cases of production systems.

🌐 Misc Deep Dives & Musings

Random curiosities, productivity experiments, minimal software philosophies, and whatever else catches my attention.
