Oooo thanks for the link! Skimming the titles I'm already excited to read some of these!
For the home server I primarily use it for file storage, backup of photo and video. I've used it for Jellyfin for media, a few different services for photos but I haven't found anything I like yet. I tried Calibre which I loved for books but I don't have many non paper books to put on there. I have a service running for Recipes for the house. I've used it to to do ad blocking for the whole network, that was fun. That's all I can remember, currently doing school drop off haha
The naming was introduced by a US army training program in the late 1960s to clearly distinguish skills whilst training soldiers. Skills related to work with metal were labelled as hard and the rest as soft. Hard skills included dealing with weapons, repairing guns, etc, and the soft ones remained as everything that didn't touch metal at any point. They wanted to change the naming afterwards as soldiers complained about the word ‘soft’ because of its stigma, but unfortunately it has stayed with us since.
Along with Rands in Repose, I find https://lethain.com/ to be exceptional! What do you use the home servers for?

pretty cool!
Looking forward to the standalone articles :)
Thanks for your insights, Coltin!
I'm not a huge fan of soft/hard naming, either:

I got this from "Hidden Potential" by Adam Grant: https://read.perspectiveship.com/p/review-hidden-potential
Oh wow I had no idea, thank you for that context! That's super interesting.
