Trivial trivia πŸ‘‡πŸ»

I love technology, art, and good design...and the occasional board game.
For a living I’m an ops nerd working IT network projects & cloud deployments.
I was raised in rural Texas, born to parents who were both born before 1931 (I am late for everything).
I grew up in poverty, nothing unique but I wouldn't trade those early experiences for anything.
I am a self-made man with the past mistakes to prove it. I keep growing and learning every day.
Writing code changed my life, along with tech and curiosity.
Myers-Briggs says I am INTP, but I do like people. At least the cool ones.
My earliest friends call me β€œJules”, late-comers "JDub". Strangers' nicknames redacted. πŸ˜‰
I once met Quentin Tarantino and William Shatner. Not at the same time.
Despite managing Cisco/Microsoft/Linux systems, I am a huge Apple geek. Not that uncommon.
I was an EV fan & Tesla early-adopter, I claim no fanhood for the immigrant oligarch who lost his mind.
For hobbies I write, play guitar/ukulele, and develop messy PowerShell and Python code.
