About the Author

Why should you listen to me? Hopefully my guides will speak for themselves. I hope to build a reputation as a writer of accurate and helpful content.

I would like to remain anonymous, so I am going to be vague. I have been working in IT for over 15 years. I have experience with PC repair, software development, security, and systems administration. Over the years I have built my skills through self-study, military training, formal education, certification programs, vendor training, and work experience.

Why Am I Doing This?

I am writing guides I would have found useful at some point in my life. I have ran into situations where I am trying to do something and I either couldn’t find what I needed, or what I did find wasn’t very helpful. I am sure I am not the only one. I would like to fill these gaps.

I have also ran into problems learning topics due to the way things were explained, or not explained. I.e. analogies and similes can make things harder than they need to be. For example, when I started learning C, I saw pointers compared to street addresses. When I found a source that plainly stated what they were, I understood them. If you are wondering, a pointer is a variable that stores a memory address.
