Plugging Claude Code into Google Drive, Gmail and Trello to audit what's actually happening in a startup: 107 files reorganized, emails that never arrived, a Trello board reconciled with reality. Including the OAuth traps nobody documents.

Fable 5 migrates 50 million lines of Ruby in a day. That's true. But while prepping a training module, I ran into the flip side the announcements skip: 500k to 1M tokens per session, 19 timeouts out of 33 tasks, and guardrails that trip at the faintest hint — to the point that Anthropic had to publicly apologize 48 hours after launch. The real manual for a model you commission instead of steer.

Four non-techy relatives need access to folders on my NAS from anywhere, simply, with a mainstream Android app. The old Internet-exposed SFTP is gone. Full story of replacing it with a Pangolin + Newt + SFTPGo stack: no public IP on the NAS, outbound WireGuard tunnel, raw TCP SFTP coming out of a 3€/month VPS Lite. Plus two hours wasted blaming my ISP when the culprit was sitting one panel over.

One February morning, my Terramaster F6-424 NAS running Debian 13 won't boot. Immediate kernel panic on the very first userspace exec. No recovery mode, single kernel installed, aggressive hardening: the system has no way to catch itself. Full story of the diagnosis (libc.so.6 turned into "ISO-8859 text" instead of ELF), the recovery from a live USB (with the apt↔libc chicken-and-egg trap), and the 2026 best practices I applied so it never happens again. Bonus: a second incident in May that revealed the real root cause.
