Hello, I'm TechDufus.
You can call me Dufus.
I build platform systems, tinker in my homelab, and share what actually worked.
This is my digital garden for incident fallout, homelab experiments, setup docs, and AI workflow lessons that survived real use.
Status: probably fighting DNS somewhere.
Current focus
Right now I am tightening agent handoffs so tasks stay owned and context does not disappear.
- Pushing Agentic Limits: I keep pushing agentic engineering to the edge to ship high-quality outcomes.
- Homelab Proving Ground: I test limits in my homelab because I like learning, tinkering, and figuring things out as I go.
- Build Notes In Public: If something breaks, I write the runbook before I forget.
Start here
How I Actually Work
- If I repeat something twice, I script it on the third pass.
- I like workflows that still make sense when I am tired.
- AI helps me move faster, but I still own every risky change.
Repos I touch most
What I'm Shipping Lately
real projects, real constraints
