Welcome to smiddys blog. I have spent many years as a seasoned mechanical fitter and process operator in the oil and gas industry. However, I have recently found myself in the midst of an early mid-life crisis. Rather than purchasing a fancy sports car or embarking on a spiritual journey, I have set my sights on becoming the greatest computer programmer of all time. Join me on my quest as I attempt to write a kernel far superior to the likes of Linux and Windows NT, utilizing the power of quantum computing. And if that fails, at least this blog will serve as a record of my further decline into insanity.
