alexhaydock/README.md

Hi, I’m Alex. 👋

I currently work as a Security Engineer in the UK.

In my spare time, I currently help to build Tor & DNS infrastructure with Emerald Onion.

Recently, I've also been maintaining some packages in Fedora. I'm hoping to get more involved in the future.

Some other random projects I've been working on:

blog.infected.systems

A blog which I started in Oct 2024 as an effort to share more of the things that I'm interested in. Oh and, yes, it is still running on a Nintendo Wii.

AS215768

My very own RIPE-allocated AS. A fun project that involved acquiring my own IPv6 prefixes to advertise, and learning far more than I wanted to know about BGP. It's currently fully functional, and advertised directly from my house with my home ISP as the primary upstream. I'm planning on looking into multi-homing this eventually.

Pinewall

My custom Alpine Linux router spin. I've been running this in production as my primary (home!) internet gateway since mid-2021. It builds into a single packed EFI binary which runs entirely from RAM. I deploy it to Proxmox using Terraform.

NekOS

An OS that only displays pictures of my cats.
