A nickname that doesn't mean anything so you can pronounce it in anyway you want.
Nothing more, especially nothing professional. I just love anything open source.
Interested in open source technologies, mainly Linux system administration and automation, WordPress administration and optimization.
- Been using Linux since the times when Windows booted in 30 seconds and Linux did in 3 minutes in one of my historic PCs. I think this must be a sign that I really love Linux. Strangely enough, the only thing I love about Windows is its classic theme. I tried everything to make my Linux desktop look like that with no success but these are the things of the past.
- Also interested in BASH, definitely not a guru, but I love to automate anything I can. You should really see how my laptop and then me panic together when the external command I passed to the fd command goes crazy just because it found every bit in $HOME recursively.
- Sometimes a server-side guy who prefers PHP over anything JavaScript. Believe me, the term 'Modern Tooling' scares me a lot.
- I no longer ask questions like 'Why is WordPress slow?' where the underlying machine is a single core VPS.
- Most of the times, I find myself hitting
jjinside any text input. Once you learn how to exit VIM, there is no turning back.
Left to right, they are ordered from what I enjoy the most to what I disgust the most. Yes React, I'm talking to you. Why? It's just that I simply cannot unlearn what I have learned, Master Yoda because you do not guarantee that what you teach will not be deprecated sooner or later.
