is it just because I've spent sooo long doing stuff with computers?

is it something in my brain, my thought patterns?

self reflection idk weird 

sorta caught up with someone who i hadn't spoke to in a while, to help them with a programming question.

they told me im doing great/that i have all these skills

and, heh, wasn't really sure how to feel about that. like yes i know a decent amount of specialized tidbits and can figure out computer stuff rather well, but then there's also so much i can't do that frustrates me and, eh

i got morph (github.com/DBCDK/morph) working in my current Arch laptop setup, which then deploys these rather basic configs to the vm's over ssh

next is:
- wireguard between nodes
- actually running useful services properly (nginx, etc)
- learning how to package my own things
- rolling these out to hetzner
- spreading this to pixie.town infra, my personal infra, my laptop, my desktop, YOUR infra, THE WORLD

I've also been meaning to experiment more with capacitive touch in-pcb design, and haptic feedback for those

could be a cool application here

hmmmm maybe I should design a better alarm clock so I don't have to use my phone for that

I like having some kind of interface that shows me how much sleep I'd be getting while setting the alarm
