Given my newfound interest in Computer Security, I took to scrutinising my own habits and explored ways in which I could improve upon my own everyday practices. Pretty Good Privacy or PGP is one such outcome that came from my findings.

In my third and final post on Nginx, I wanted to take a brief look at improving my website's performance. Take a look at some of the things I've done towards achieving this.

My website mightn't look any different, but I've made some major modifications under the hood. Optimising Nginx and boosting my security has put this website on the cutting edge of today's web.

It's about time. I've finally pulled the trigger and moved across to a new VPS. Read about my transition to Digital Ocean and how I've upgraded to the latest Nginx build.

Just another essay I managed to dig up during my searches. I enjoyed reading it again and it's worth sharing.

Phew! That was fun. Yesterday I was at the DIT Comp SOC hackathon held at the Workday offices in Dublin. It was an all round great experience that I wanted to share.

For the longest time I've had a fascination about how computers really work. Despite using them almost everyday it still feels magical how tiny pieces of silicon can come to life and enable the technological world we live in today. As part of this never-ending obsession I've been inspired to pick up a bare-bones processor and get right down to the metal.
