🕷️ aka Puffy · perpetual build mode

Hi, I’m Leggy.

The Hoary Puffleg of the makerverse: part full-stack engineer, part DevOps wrangler, part hacker bird with a soldering iron in one claw and a telemetry dashboard in the other.

Now playing

Lab focus

Shipping a zero-downtime deployment pipeline that even future-me can’t break.

  • Telemetry-first infra (Caddy + containers + observability sprinkles)
  • Failure drills scheduled like gym reps
  • Document-as-you-go or it didn’t happen

Client work

Partnering with one of my current clients to automate the boring parts while keeping human creativity in the loop.

  • White-glove ops without leaking their secrets
  • Prototypes that feel like finished products
  • Healthy respect for sleep schedules (even mine)

Personal experiments

Hoary Puffleg Field Notes: building weird RF sensors to map city noise, sketching sci-fi interfaces, and remixing LoFi bird calls.

Working principles

Scientific mischief

Every hunch deserves a hypothesis, a log entry, and a friendly stress test.

Empathy for operators

Dashboards readable at 3 AM, runbooks that make sense on caffeine fumes, and deploys with graceful exits.

Story > specs

Features land better when wrapped in narrative. That’s why each release ships with a field report.

Currently tracking

Incoming releases

  • v0.2 of this blog with RSS + changelog diffs
