👋 Hey! I’m Felix.

I’ve recently switched from using my brain to store places of interest to a digital solution. I did a bit of research to try and find what could work well. Initially I looked at trying to use non-Google solutions. Apple Maps doesn’t fit the bill because it lacks collaboration. I’d love to use an OpenStreetMap based app, but the data breadth just isn’t there. Google Maps is my only choice. ...

Often times I’m working in a repo where I want to update the digest of a Docker image. Usually that means navigating to the container registry in some form of console or UI and sorting to find the tag that I want and the latest digest. Pretty easy for a public registry like Docker Hub, but less convenient for a corporate registry that I need to login to see. I recently came across the docker buildx imagetools inspect1 command. ...

This is the first in a series of posts I plan to make about technical concepts I’m learning – Tech Bites. Explaining them will hopefully solidify my understanding. I plan for these to be relatively short, this one is definitely an outlier because it’s fairly bulky. Encoding Software is useful because it interacts with other code and computers. At some point this means communication across a network. Unfortunately the data we use in code can’t simply be sent across the internet. Often it needs some conversion into a different format. This conversion is called encoding. ...

This site is to help me and will hopefully be useful to you as well. A few reasons why I decided to start this: I find writing down my thoughts and ideas forces me to clarify and distill them. They’re then packaged in a more effective format for others to consume. Learn in public. Again, not only do I get accountability, but by forcing myself to explain concepts to a broad audience, I’m forcing myself to internalise them. At least that’s the aim. Now onto the domain.
