How I actually use AI tools in engineering work
Not a productivity take. A look at where LLMs are genuinely useful in systems work, where they're not, and what that tells me about building better agent tooling.

Notes on systems work, debugging, and the engineering behind building reliable infrastructure and AI tooling.

Live migration sounds clean in the docs. The reality involves dirty page tracking, guest agent timeouts, and failures that only happen under load.
A VM went unresponsive. The hypervisor thought it was fine. The guest disagreed. Tracing the failure across three layers to find the actual cause.
