So - You want to be a Computer Dude?

So you want to be a Computer Dude?

The word / expression "Dude" is not a reference to being male, female, or whatever, it is a designation of "Skill Level."

When we go surfing - anyone rated "Dude" just means they have the skill to surf safely, do stunts; and did not have to be watched by
the others for group safety..   :)Todd


This is what a "Computer Dude" needs to know to work with one of my companies.in 2023.


Dude Basic Skills - 2023

Can you setup a RPI to run in 64 Bit Mode?
Can you setup a RAMDISK on the RPI to run the OS?
Can you setup a RPI as an Apache Web Host?
Can you setup an MySQL or other SQL database on a RPI?

Computer Dudes announces - LIDAR for Raspberry Pi 4b or other single board computers.

Some other systems can be found on GetHub.

Here is our first prototype LIDAR using a Raspberry Pi 4b Hat.

https://www.okdo.com/getting-started/get-started-with-lidar-hat-for-raspberry-pi/

LIDAR is for Drone Detection and Mapping.

LIDAR is now an option for our #solaronemonolith

Computer Dudes has just completed the worlds first automated surveillance, reporting, facial recognition system - that includes active and passive defenses for jobsites, industry, malls or any location.

This product line is for individuals, corporations, utilities, industry and government.

All components are human friendly and safe for workers and visitors - but can notify and defend against thieves, robbers, vandals or any other threat.

Go, Computer Dudes, Go!!

It is sad to report but Neither Computer Dudes nor any of our Banks are going under.

In fact, we have no debt. Something we would recommend to any corporation or human.

Sure, we had to work for it and still work for it but that is OK, because that is what we do. ;)T

"Maverick" is a word much older than Top Gun, Tom Cruise, and even the first Airplane.

A Maverick is a motherless calf, unbranded, on the open range.

Using Maverick as a human name or as an adjective describing a human personality type came much later.

Check it out! :)T

Some of us came up with a giant "wiener" shaped Weather Balloon and a sensor pack for it to carry to launch from the West Coast or Alaska and let it fly over China.
Not kidding - I have worked on weather balloon and microsat / sensors for decades. The National Weather Service has a weather balloon launch site here in Tallahassee, Florida so we see them go up all the time.
Nothing to be afraid of.
People and Governments have been using weather and other balloons for much longer than computers have even been in existance. :)T

Some of you were looking for Raspberry Pi's and others were working on Robots

Check this source out. Parallax also makes a complete line of small robots, sensors, cameras and all sorts of education projects too.

They are very cooperative with Teachers and Classrooms at all levels and have lessons along with source material and projects online and in live scheduled events.

I have used Parallax for decades. Bookmark it for sensors and lessons. :)

Your pal,
Todd
