Matt Pocock: my self-built personal wiki became critical business infrastructure in 3 months

Educator Matt Pocock shares a 3-month update on his self-built personal wiki, now critical infrastructure for his business.
- A daily 15-minute auto-generated podcast summarizes everything new flowing into the wiki (X, Discord, Slack, Gmail, GitHub issues), doubling as a vibe check on whether the wiki reflects reality
- He's building on-demand podcasts for deep dives before recording videos
- A custom CLI lets agents query his course material and AI Hero posts to help flesh out new courses
Key takeaway: owning your own data is far more powerful than expected, and relying on a vendor for agent memory risks lock-in.
