More Linux

Just signed up for yet another Linux Academy membership. This will actually be the third time that I’ve paid for one, but I’m pretty set on learning as much as I can to prepare myself for the world of DevOps and System Adminstration. I’ve got a few courses planned out for starters, and then I’ll continue to plan more out as I go along. But here’s what I was thinking about starting with:

  • Getting a Linux Essentials certification
  • Taking a few quick training DevOps courses on
    • Vagrant, Puppet, Docker
    • Developing with Python

In the meantime, I’ve also been working with Ruby again. This post was created with a script I made on the fly that will automatically generate a Markdown file that takes user input for the title and adds today’s date. It then inserts the Front Matter with the same title and date, and some additional global variables.

I have a few more plans for the script, but first I need to clean up the code a bit and re-work a few things. But I’m pretty happy with it so far. I’ll post a link to it once I’m satisfied with the results.

Still on a metal kick lately, which usually happens around this time of year each year. Today’s album is a favorite of mine from high school; Wolverine Blues by Entombed. Sometimes considered death and roll, the guitars are heavy and mid-paced, and full of grooves.
