About

I’m Liam Beeton. I’m a software developer  and my partner and I have two boys; the youngest is 4 and the eldest is 6. So that keeps me busy for the majority of my waking hours.

I’m also a tinkerer, a lifelong learner and a collector of hobbies. So, on this blog, I invite you to share in my fascination with any or all of the following:

• Trail running and mountain biking
• Cybersecurity - open source intelligence (OSINT) and red teaming
• Artificial Intelligence - mainly high-performance Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems
• Making music - electronic music and music production
• Photography - digital and film
• Building LEGO Technic - mostly supercars
• Sojourns around South Africa
• Adventures in parenting
• Bullet journals, second brain and intentional living
• And yes, programming and software development - I consider myself a pretty versatile developer (frontend, backend, testing and everything in between), so you should hopefully see that reflected in what I share here!
