I can't believe that three years ago, I was preparing to leave Vietnam and return to the US. Not even a year later, I will start working in IT full-time. Witness many life changes and experience firsthand the impact of a divided country.

YouTube needs to require clips to be used with sources that include timestamps. I want to review unedited clips to determine if the left/right analysis of sound bites is accurate.

Back in Vietnam. Eleven days already. It's hard to believe I lived here for 18 years before leaving over two years ago. Still, I will return yearly if possible. Photos coming soon.

I am not knocking Windows. I love using Windows 11 Pro in Parallels on my Mac. I just think virtualization should be enabled by default even with VMs. Yeah, I know, install a Linux VM, but I am working with DevOps who are more comfortable with Windows than Linux.

Umm, Microsoft, when you are about to install Docker Desktop or a WSL install of Ubuntu, shouldn't the setup screen check to see if virtualization is enabled in BIOS first?

In the process of migrating my server once again. I am transitioning to Kubernetes, eventually, but now fully administer my Linux server with containers.

I just confirmed my selection to take part in the US Peace Corp's Virtual Service Pilot. It is only open now for Returned PCVs, but if this project is successful, it will open up for anyone interested in being part of the Peace Corps without going overseas.

I must have been tired this morning. I walked to my desk and tried to turn the door knob on my monitor. It took me a couple seconds to realize it.
