A Great Time for Computing

Ben

Computers are fun, they can connect you to people in new ways. They can be a form of self expression. Small Form Factor (SFF) computers today are so capable, you can get a long way using one. Or renting a small Virtual Private Server (VPS) for the cost of a coffee or two. There are so many projects out there you can build on and use.[1] AI can help you write configuration files, systemd unit files, and give you commands to run at the start.[2]

You may not control the future of computing. You may have not participated in the past. But now is a great time to come, enjoy yourself, and showcase your personality online.

[1]: I'd focus on ones with a proven track record, this is not meant to be a statement about the code explosion due to AI

[2]: I'd read the docs on what it gives you and really press the AI for information. But that it can give you even a starting place is phenomenal.
