But lately, I&amp;rsquo;ve been trying to answer a childhood dream.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Growing up in China before the internet age, my window to the outside world was CCTV-6. Along with &lt;em&gt;Baywatch&lt;/em&gt;, one of the first American TV shows I ever watched was &lt;em&gt;Knight Rider&lt;/em&gt;. I don&amp;rsquo;t remember the exact plot lines, but the core concept stuck with me forever: KITT. A car that could talk, think, and do things for you.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>How I Built a Blog Agent that Writes About Itself</title><link>https://ericxliu.me/posts/reverse-engineering-antigravity-ide/</link><pubDate>Fri, 16 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://ericxliu.me/posts/reverse-engineering-antigravity-ide/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I&amp;rsquo;ve been spending a lot of time &amp;ldquo;vibe coding&amp;rdquo; in the Antigravity IDE lately. It&amp;rsquo;s an incredible flow state—intense, iterative, and fast. But it has a major flaw: the context is ephemeral. Once the session is over, that rich history of decisions, wrong turns, and &amp;ldquo;aha!&amp;rdquo; moments is locked away in an opaque, internal format.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;I wanted to capture that value. I wanted a system that could take my chaotic coding sessions and distill them into structured, technical blog posts (like the one you&amp;rsquo;re reading right now).&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Why I Downgraded Magisk to Root My Pixel 2 XL</title><link>https://ericxliu.me/posts/rooting-pixel-2-xl-for-reverse-engineering/</link><pubDate>Wed, 07 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://ericxliu.me/posts/rooting-pixel-2-xl-for-reverse-engineering/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;For the past few weeks, I&amp;rsquo;ve been stuck in a stalemate with my EcoFlow Bluetooth Protocol Reverse Engineering Project. I have the hci snoop logs, I have the decompiled APK, and I have a strong suspicion about where the authentication logic is hiding. But suspicion isn&amp;rsquo;t proof.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Static analysis has its limits. I found the &amp;ldquo;smoking gun&amp;rdquo; function—a native method responsible for encrypting the login payload—but understanding &lt;em&gt;how&lt;/em&gt; it constructs that payload within a strict 13-byte limit purely from assembly (ARM64) was proving to be a headache.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Why Your "Resilient" Homelab is Slower Than a Raspberry Pi</title><link>https://ericxliu.me/posts/debugging-authentik-performance/</link><pubDate>Fri, 02 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://ericxliu.me/posts/debugging-authentik-performance/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;In the world of self-hosting, there are many metrics for success: 99.9% uptime, sub-second latency, or a perfect GitOps pipeline. But for those of us running &amp;ldquo;production&amp;rdquo; at home, there is only one metric that truly matters: &lt;strong&gt;The Wife Acceptance Factor (WAF)&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

But lately, I&amp;rsquo;ve been trying to answer a childhood dream.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Growing up in China before the internet age, my window to the outside world was CCTV-6. Along with &lt;em&gt;Baywatch&lt;/em&gt;, one of the first American TV shows I ever watched was &lt;em&gt;Knight Rider&lt;/em&gt;. I don&amp;rsquo;t remember the exact plot lines, but the core concept stuck with me forever: KITT. A car that could talk, think, and do things for you.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>How I Built a Blog Agent that Writes About Itself</title><link>https://ericxliu.me/posts/reverse-engineering-antigravity-ide/</link><pubDate>Fri, 16 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://ericxliu.me/posts/reverse-engineering-antigravity-ide/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I&amp;rsquo;ve been spending a lot of time &amp;ldquo;vibe coding&amp;rdquo; in the Antigravity IDE lately. It&amp;rsquo;s an incredible flow state—intense, iterative, and fast. But it has a major flaw: the context is ephemeral. Once the session is over, that rich history of decisions, wrong turns, and &amp;ldquo;aha!&amp;rdquo; moments is locked away in an opaque, internal format.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;I wanted to capture that value. I wanted a system that could take my chaotic coding sessions and distill them into structured, technical blog posts (like the one you&amp;rsquo;re reading right now).&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Why I Downgraded Magisk to Root My Pixel 2 XL</title><link>https://ericxliu.me/posts/rooting-pixel-2-xl-for-reverse-engineering/</link><pubDate>Wed, 07 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://ericxliu.me/posts/rooting-pixel-2-xl-for-reverse-engineering/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;For the past few weeks, I&amp;rsquo;ve been stuck in a stalemate with my EcoFlow Bluetooth Protocol Reverse Engineering Project. I have the hci snoop logs, I have the decompiled APK, and I have a strong suspicion about where the authentication logic is hiding. But suspicion isn&amp;rsquo;t proof.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Static analysis has its limits. I found the &amp;ldquo;smoking gun&amp;rdquo; function—a native method responsible for encrypting the login payload—but understanding &lt;em&gt;how&lt;/em&gt; it constructs that payload within a strict 13-byte limit purely from assembly (ARM64) was proving to be a headache.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Why Your "Resilient" Homelab is Slower Than a Raspberry Pi</title><link>https://ericxliu.me/posts/debugging-authentik-performance/</link><pubDate>Fri, 02 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://ericxliu.me/posts/debugging-authentik-performance/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;In the world of self-hosting, there are many metrics for success: 99.9% uptime, sub-second latency, or a perfect GitOps pipeline.
