Welcome to No More Secrets, where the veil of obfuscation is lifted and knowledge flows freely.
The Origin Story
If you’ve seen the 1992 film Sneakers, you know where this comes from. In the movie, our protagonists discover that “Setec Astronomy” isn’t just a random company name—it’s an anagram for “Too Many Secrets.” The revelation becomes central to the plot, highlighting how information can be hidden in plain sight.

This blog embraces the opposite philosophy: No More Secrets. In a world where knowledge is often gatekept, obscured, or hidden behind paywalls, we believe in radical transparency and open sharing of information.
What You’ll Find Here
This isn’t your typical tech blog with glossy marketing copy and corporate speak. Here, you’ll find:
Raw Technical Knowledge
- Deep dives into systems programming, security research, and infrastructure
- Real-world problem-solving with actual code and configs
- Honest discussions about failures, bugs, and lessons learned
Terminal Aesthetics, Terminal Mindset
The design isn’t just for show—it reflects a philosophy. The command line is where real work gets done. It’s direct, efficient, and unforgiving. No hiding behind pretty UIs or hand-wavy abstractions.
Open Source Everything
Every solution shared here comes with full source code, proper documentation, and the freedom to adapt, modify, and improve upon it.
The Mission
In the movie, the Black Box could decrypt any message, breaking through all security. Our mission is similar but benevolent: to break through the barriers that keep knowledge locked away.
We’re here to:
- Demystify complex technical concepts
- Share practical, working solutions
- Challenge security through obscurity
- Build tools that empower rather than restrict

Stay tuned for deep technical content, security research, and tools that matter. Remember: in a world full of secrets, transparency is a revolutionary act.
The Code
True to our mission, even this blog is open source. Every component, every style, every bit of infrastructure is documented and available. Because if we’re going to preach “no more secrets,” we better practice it.

Welcome to the resistance against unnecessary secrecy. Let’s build something better together.
“There’s a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it’s not about who’s got the most bullets. It’s about who controls the information.” - Cosmo, Sneakers (1992)
