Hello, welcome to my personal blog. I live in a small apartment in Boston with my wife and daughter. We are from Minatomirai, Yokohama Japan.
I am an IT engineer, to be more specific, a Product Owner (PO). I am not a developer, but I like programming. I know/knew a little bit of Python and SQL. I’m learning JavaScript/TypeScript and emacs lisp.
I love emacs. I started using ox-hugo and hugo to write this blog in org-mode.
To improve my English and public speaking skills, I belong to a Toastmasters club.
For questions, comments, etc., please email me at achiwa912@gmail.com
About this blog
This blog is hosted on my homelab mini PC with Intel N150, 16GB memory and 1TB SSD. I installed proxmox + ubuntu + docker, and deployed the following services with docker compose:
- Immich - Google Photos alternative
- Pi-hole - network-wide DNS with ad-blocker
- Caddy - web server & reverse proxy with auto-cert renewal
- porkbun-ddns - DDNS for domain names purchased from porkbun
- RomM - retro game library
For this several months, I write mainly about AI.
Notes:
- I might update EXPORT_DATE for existing articles when I update them (except minor corrections).
- I shutdown the homelab server for about 2 hours at random timing (mainly on weekends) for backup. If it’s unreachable for longer than that, it might be a hardware/network issue. Forgive me if that happens. It’s not cloud-hosted.
