Dancing through information morass for fun and profit.


So I like words!
I work with lots of platforms, Linux being the second most common for me. I find the last 55 years of technological growth to be breathtaking. Every new step, every new system is like taking a deep breath and jumping off a high cliff and wondering if anything is there to stop me at the bottom.
Coding skills include machine code, assembler, and then some high er level stuff.
Knowledge level, well compared to what's available, it's close to nothing.
Right now my side fun is working with an embedded IoT server. It fits in my back pocket and has more power then all the computers I used for the first 10 years of my computer experience.
Back to fun.

Welcome to the forums!

My personal preference is that you don't say IoT ... sorry passive/aggressive
