Hello everyone, and thank you for welcoming me to this amazing forum! You’re all fantastic and a daily source of inspiration for me. I've been lurking at the forum for two years but I did suscribe yesterday to this amazing place.
I’m Jules, 35 years old French guy, a self-employed business lawyer with a background in legal history academia—but I’m also passionate about IT! I started my career by programming legal document matrices at one of France’s largest legal software companies (the largest, actually), and my love for IT has never left me.
I’ve always been passionate about electronics and started with Arduino, then Raspberry Pis, before discovering the PicoMite VGA, which I absolutely loved—I still use it at least once a week whenever I have time. It’s by far the simplest compared to C or my worst enemy, Python!
So, I’m kind of a young "noob" with no real computer science skills, but I’ve been using Linux since I was 15. I know how to compile and write small C programs, and I even have my own home server on a tiny Pi Zero running InfluxDB, MQTT, and all the beginner’s toolkit. Reading your posts always motivates me to keep going and try out the (often useless) ideas that pop into my head!
