Overview
Jason Eckert
Aside from being 98% chimp, I am a dean, teacher, author, father, grandfather, musician, science buff, arcade game freak, technogeek, software engineer, cloud architect, computer collector, UNIX/Linux preacher, coffee worshipper, and outdoor adventure lover. The illustration shown here was created by Choolee (https://art-by-choolee.com) based on her impression of me only. Feel free to drop me a line via email (jason.eckert@trios.com), Mastodon, Twitter, or LinkedIn (I ditched Facebook/Meta many years ago for good and so should you). You can use the Sections menu in the navbar to peruse my site, or search for specific articles and blog posts using either Search or Archive. To comment on a post, you will need to first have a free GitHub account (the comments feature uses GitHub Discussions alongside giscus.app). Recent articles and blog posts are listed below, as well as available via an RSS feed.
