If building this site taught me one thing, it's this: the enemy isn't the error, it's the silence. An error tells you where to look. A silent failure leaves you staring at a page that looks fine for days. This third part is about everything that broke without complaining, and how you catch it.
A personal website looks harmless. And yet every typeface served from someone else's service, every library pulled from a content delivery network and every share button is a third party receiving your visitor's IP address, without that person having asked for it or even knowing. This part is about closing those doors, and about the paperwork that follows.
I have three trades and one face. I work with systems and networks, I handle bookkeeping and paperwork, and I teach. A portfolio covering only one of the three would lie by omission; three separate portfolios would mean three maintenance jobs and none of them up to date. This series is about how I got out of that, what I decided and — above all — what I ruled out and why.
