Did some more work on The Data Compression Book. Wrote up a little `main`
skeleton for the binaries. Might use this as an excuse to try out subtask-style
interfaces in Adopt. I think it'll work, but I haven't actually tried it yet.

+Finally finished reading ULSAH. Took a few months, but aside from skimming over
+20% that wasn't super relevant it was as good as I remember back from 2008.
+Lots of things I need to look deeper into and try out on my own:
+
+* `strace` and friends.
+* Performance monitoring stuff: `sar`, `vmstat`, `iostat`, etc.
+* VMs using KVM and Qemu instead of Virtualbox.
+* Learn more about `systemd` (unfortunately).
+* Poke at `btrfs` a bit more using my existing setup.
+* Look into Ansible as a configuration management system — it seems the simplest
+ of the Puppet/Chef/Salt/Ansible crew.
+* Building machine images with Packer.
+* Look into Terraform for deployment.
+* Restructure local wifi into main/guest networks.
