Patterns

Reusable explanations for software, data, infrastructure, automation, devops, hardware, practical systems, and more.

Patterns are durable notes for things worth explaining more than once: named approaches, trade-offs, warnings, conventions, and useful ways of thinking.

Some entries are patterns. Some are anti-patterns. Some are field notes that became useful enough to write down properly. Some may turn out to be anti-patterns later, because context changes and ideas deserve to be tested against reality.
