I am an Australian, Veteran Software Engineer with more than 25 years on the keys (and it's starting to show). When I first started working online in 1997 we were still trying to figure out what to do with it, and we had NO IDEA of just how much the Internet was going to change our world ...
These days, I'm developing 100% Open Source Software ... and I've started writing to try and pass on a little of what I've learned.
Right now I'm focused on building my own IT Consultancy Practice which specializes in the commercial application of cloud, container, and open-source technologies. Alongside this, I'm hoping to build a community of like-minded geeks who are interested in learning some of the stuff I managed to pick up over the past 25 years.

If sponsorship isn't right for you, but you have found my work to be useful in some way,
would you please consider buying me a coffee to help keep me going?
