  • Elasticsearch!

    For longer than I’d like to admit, I kept hearing about this thing called Elasticsearch. Now I have an idea of what it is! Over the last week, I completed the Beginner’s Crash Course to Elastic Stack (YouTube mini videos). I am by no means claiming that I KNOW Elasticsearch, but I believe I have…

  • Diving Back In. Again…

    Well, I allowed my education to take a back seat again… I have relocated to another state, and my goal is to build the skills needed to always get a remote job/career, so I can live anywhere! Fortunately, my progress has not been as stagnant as my postings. I made a page on my GitHub…

  • Reality Pokes Its Head In…

    …takes a look, and is disappointed. The accountability aspect is starting to take hold. It is VERY easy to say I’m going to do 1, 2 & 3. It  is another to blow it off. And completely another to look back and see the progress, or in this case, the lack thereof. To say the…
