Things I figured out while building. Notes on domain search, security, Kubernetes, and the decisions behind the code.
Most engineers don't understand what secrets are or how they should work. Static secrets create permanent compromises. Dynamic secrets and identity-based access change the game.
What working with enterprise-grade security engineers taught me—and why security becomes a design constraint as systems grow.
How I built Quickerdomain with Go, migrated from BadgerDB to PebbleDB for lower memory usage, used SSEs for streaming results, and frontend tricks like prepending TLDs for perceived speed.
Architecture decisions behind an agentic workflow system with K8s job pods and Azure OpenAI integration.
Honest reflections on learning Kubernetes, Helm charts, and Terraform at Seaionl. What clicked, what didn't, and what I still need to learn.
