Shannon Smith.

I build software, enjoy machinery, and like to understand how things work.

A little about me

On the workbench

InfiltratorFS

A filesystem, built from first principles.

What survives a crash? How should old versions be retained? InfiltratorFS follows those questions into the on-disk format, recovery tools and a native Linux driver.

  • Copy-on-write generations
  • Checksummed data & metadata
  • Native Linux integration

The car & the garage history

This address began with a Mercedes-Benz 450SEL 6.9 in the 1990s. Cars, code, open-reel tape and watches have all found a place here since.
