I am a software engineer, SRE, principal SWE, Linux engineer, prolific application and tool developer, and technical hobbyist. I have 42 years of experience building infrastructure. I currently have 140 private Gitea repositories of applications and tools not shown here. Some of those will be migrated here soon.
