GN. Found this https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs Docs need work, but wow this is a super convenient tool to provide simple user-space encrypted file system for decent encryption at rest. Particular use case - sharing small files on HA storage on active-active nodes. Mostly designed for portable or shared/network storage. No extra servers/services just a single 8mb package and a service file.

As someone who lost a parent, that's one of the many things that's wished for. Being able to actually know your lost parent as an adult. Who they really are, not just the parent. That and what they were going though at those younger stages in parenthood.

There IS (guy is still around) this guy who, for the last maybe 15 years or so, sells slightly modified factory Honeywell (Garret) turbochargers. He would pop in and out and call everyone who was selling aftermarket turbos retarded for a week or so, get bullied by anyone over room temp IQ, then leave for another 5-6 months. Nothing has changed in the past decade, people still send me screenshots of the nym account and his other aliases and friends. As far as were aware, he's never actually designed or built anything original, different, or better than existing products. He could never sell them, ever. He's build a laughably silly "brand" by bashing others, joining groups and privately messaging naive newcomers as they enter looking for "alternatives". Which is sad because at the time, I fought hard against some of the more established companies, because none of the "engineers" ever went to school (often said that part out loud) nor had experience designing mechanical products. They mostly realized that you could match the design of other existing products by grinding a little here, and a little there, marking up the product by 20% and selling a "bigger" part. Which, among many shortcomings, often failed prematurely compared to factory "upgraded" parts. We found the hard way that once you actually build a company that starts selling units in volume, real companies can keep up and grow with you, the ones who built a brand by copying others failed, and failed hard, and they take you down with them. Pie in the sky until you run 5k units and realize the product was so bad now _your_ customers are mad. Anyway the lesson I'm sharing is that people like this exist in every field, they think they're smarter than everyone, but rarely produce anything worth value. They may actually have better ideas in their head, but fail to articulate it, produce it, and cooperate with others to spread it. You can't sell an idea without proof that it's actually better. Furthermore, just because an idea is better, doesn't mean it's going to win, and in many cases, it probably wont. That's life.
