Cats in Tech
A video series about cybersecurity, cloud computing, DevOps, operating systems, and networking — hosted by three cats who actually know what they're talking about.
Two of the three hosts are blind. The information is complete without the visuals. That's intentional.
The Hosts
Flatbush web dev. Blind. Built his whole career listening to the internet. Zero tolerance for inaccessible UIs.
On-call since 2009. Knows the fix before you finish describing the problem.
Totally blind. Navigates by sound and vibes. Says four things per episode. All of them correct.
Season 1
10 episodes · voices generated · video in productionIntro to Cybersecurity Terms
Phishing. Malware. Firewalls. Encryption. The four words you need to understand before anything else. Explained by a blind cat who has been navigating the internet by listening to it.
Intro to Cloud Computing
The cloud is someone else's computer. DaviCat explains what that actually means, why the benefits are real, and why the risks are also real.
What is DevOps & DevSecOps?
Two cats, one pipeline. DaviCat on why DevOps exists. Rammy on why security can't be an afterthought.
AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI, DigitalOcean
The five cloud providers you will encounter. What each one is actually for. Why they all cost more than you expect. Set billing alerts.
What is Kubernetes?
K8s. The thing everyone says they know. Pods, Nodes, Clusters, Services — explained by someone who has had clusters running for months without touching them.
What is DNS?
The distributed phone book that makes the internet work. A records, CNAMEs, MX, TTLs. Explained by a cat who uses dig and nslookup the same way you do — by reading the output.
What is SMTP and Email?
Email involves three protocols and four servers. Rammy explains SMTP, IMAP, ports, and why your DMARC record is missing.
What is Linux?
DaviCat explains the kernel, the distros, the command line. Tommy appears from somewhere in the room and adds four things. All four matter.
What is macOS and Unix?
macOS is Unix with a polished surface on top. Tommy explains the lineage — Bell Labs, BSD, Darwin — and why macOS and Linux share the same mental model.
What is Windows?
A billion devices. A separate lineage. Tommy explains Windows with total calm and minimal enthusiasm. Still correct. Learn PowerShell. That's the series.
