About

Thoughts behind Otama's Playground and records of daily trial and error.

Thank you for visiting ā€œOtama’s Playgroundā€. This is a place where the administrator, ottamage, records the process of actually trying out ā€œinteresting mechanismsā€ and ā€œnew technologiesā€ found in daily life with their own hands.

Rather than a site that explains organized knowledge, it is operated as a personal playground where I enjoy the process of trial and error itself, like a child who has obtained a new toy saying ā€œWow, so this is how it works!ā€

What I’m Chasing

Creating and Expressing

The realm of ā€œexpressionā€ such as images, videos, and music is becoming increasingly accessible thanks to technology. I am excited by the speed of this change. Mastering tools is interesting in itself, but I feel the greatest joy in the moment when I can give shape to ā€œthings that only existed in my head until yesterdayā€ using them.

Organizing Systems

I feel a small joy in controlling my digital environment with my own hands. Building home servers, network settings (VPN, fixed IP), container technology, etc. - I like the feeling of solving a puzzle by connecting these seemingly plain and inconspicuous ā€œback-endā€ mechanisms one by one and making them work as intended.

Thinking with Logic and Numbers

I am also interested in areas where numbers and logic are piled up, such as investment and analysis. The process of rewriting the intuition of ā€œprobably like thisā€ into ā€œcertainly like thisā€ using data is also an important training of thought for me.


About the Administrator

My motto is ā€œTry touching it for nowā€. I jump on new things when they come out, groan when I get stuck in settings, and grin alone when it finally works. I lead such a daily life.
