Here is an opportunity to come along with me on my own path to do the same. I've been looking for a way to share what I've learnt in my time and for that to be useful, not just for you the reader, but also for me. At the beginning of 2026 I started work on a new repository share-lt. It is not the first open source I published but I hope it not to be the last either. The name is short for 'share lighWed, 07 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMTlaravelhttps://headshed.dev/deadheading-the-cloud/https://headshed.dev/deadheading-the-cloud/An exploration of where AI agentic workflows actually fit, why infrastructure still demands real intelligence, and how corporate greed risks turning knowledge workers into "reverse centaurs.

It’s engineered to run on self hosted virtual machines. It can be on just a single host but is is intended to run on 3 to be resilient to single node failure. It is intended to be simple enough to maintain without the need for a dedicated platform team, while still mirroring the structural patterns of traditional managedTue, 22 Jul 2025 00:00:00 GMTk8shttps://headshed.dev/the-pwa-tightrope-automating-android-while-big-tech-kills-the-web-dream/https://headshed.dev/the-pwa-tightrope-automating-android-while-big-tech-kills-the-web-dream/Is the PWA dead in 2026?

Doing this more than once is a time sink and prone to error. So how can we reduce setup complexity and quickly get to productively writing code ? I've been looking at this problem and applying it to my own apps for AI with Google ADK and Python. We need to talk about setup Who has never heard 'it works on my laptop' when apps fail in production or on another developers laptop ?
