About us

Hey there. I’m Jesse Bennet. As a developer, I’ve been elbow-deep in code, configs, and command lines for a good chunk of my life. Over time, I’ve zeroed in on some critical facets of tech that I reckon are worth anyone’s attention if they’re playing in this sandbox.

When it comes to setting up VMs, it’s not just a drag-and-drop situation. Different OSs? Different quirks. Whether you’re spinning up a lightweight container or wrangling with hypervisors, I’ve been there, done that, and probably wrote a script for it.

Unix isn’t just another entry in the OS directory; it’s the granddaddy of stability. But with stability comes the need for hardening. In a landscape littered with script kiddies and zero-day exploits, I’ve been grinding away at making sure Unix systems stay buttoned-up tight with best security practices.

Linux for creative professionals? Some might raise an eyebrow, but I’ve been diving deep into the kernel, tweaking the GUI, and modding tools to make Linux a go-to for those in the creative domain. Why settle for stock when you can customize?

As for encryption, with data being the new oil, you better believe its protection is critical. Each year, I’ve pored over open-source encryption tools, stress-tested them, and benchmarked their performance. I’m here to give you the lowdown on which ones can hold their own in 2023.

So, if you’re here to get the nitty-gritty on some hardcore tech topics, you’ve come to the right terminal. Let’s get cracking!
