Well, it’s been a minute. Actually, it’s been more than a year since my last post here. If you’re wondering what happened—no drama, no manifesto, just the usual: busy in the field, building, fixing, and occasionally breaking things (on purpose, I promise).
If you landed here looking for a Linux how-to, a drive-sharing tip, or a quick fix for your network gremlins, you’re still in the right place. But you’ll notice things are changing. OutInTheCloud is growing up a bit—just like the tech world itself.
Why the silence?
Honestly? I’ve been out there doing the work. Sometimes that means less time for writing, more time for learning (and unlearning). The good news: I’ve collected a year’s worth of stories, lessons, and “I wish someone had told me this sooner” moments. Now it’s time to share them.
What’s next?
Expect blog posts on whatever’s actually useful—business, development, process, AI, tools, and the messy, wonderful intersection of technology and real work. No rigid categories, no buzzword bingo. Just practical posts, each with something you can run, try, or argue with.
- Some posts will be about making decisions that survive the night (especially if your team is remote).
- Some will be about why “done” isn’t done until users—or auditors—can’t tell it broke.
- Some will be about the smallest useful AI you can deploy this week (and how not to overthink it).
- And yes, there will still be Linux tips, scripts, and config snippets—because some things never go out of style.
If you’re new here
Welcome! You’ll find posts that are short, readable, and built for action. If you want theory, there are plenty of other blogs. If you want something you can use before your coffee gets cold, stick around.
If you’ve been here since the beginning
Thanks for your patience. Your terminal skills still matter. Now we’re connecting them to the bigger bets, the gates, and the guardrails that decide whether good work actually lands.
Next up: Why your project shipped but didn’t land (and what to do next Monday).
Glad to be back. Let’s get to work.
