2019-10-04 23:19:00 UTC

2019-10-04 23:20:07 UTC  

conflict

2019-10-04 23:20:11 UTC  

well

2019-10-04 23:20:17 UTC  

we were not in direct conflict

2019-10-04 23:20:36 UTC  

but we were in the area and got a fire support mission

2019-10-04 23:21:00 UTC  

CM is a stand off weapon.....way off😂

2019-10-04 23:21:39 UTC  

so your system was close in Phalanx?

2019-10-04 23:21:53 UTC  

yeah technically i was not supposed to be watching the missions but they were in my division so i was behind the curtain

2019-10-04 23:21:56 UTC  

yea phalanx

2019-10-04 23:23:12 UTC  

when CM launches....everyone on board feels it...I've seem many a launch. Never gets old.

2019-10-04 23:24:36 UTC  

so ur got your 8 in so you r good for med. did u plan on career/retire?

2019-10-04 23:25:18 UTC  

not really. i just reenlisted for shore duty and got cut short at my training command

2019-10-04 23:25:41 UTC  

i was instructor at CIWS school in SD for a couple years

2019-10-04 23:26:16 UTC  

I see. Over 200 generals got bounced by Obummer too. Ever thought about re-up or reserves now?

2019-10-04 23:26:34 UTC  

but it was kind of a light separation anyway. i was going to fight it at court martial and then they reduced my case to a general under honorable so i just took it

2019-10-04 23:27:07 UTC  

no way re up. im about to go use my GI bill

2019-10-04 23:27:45 UTC  

Good for u. What' the plan for school?

2019-10-04 23:27:56 UTC  

im gonna go to a coding boot camp

2019-10-04 23:28:16 UTC  

3 month class for a couple programming languages and web development

2019-10-04 23:28:37 UTC  

i started going to college already but it was not for me

2019-10-04 23:28:41 UTC  

what part of the country are u in?

2019-10-04 23:28:47 UTC  

central texas

2019-10-04 23:31:12 UTC  

So ur thinking web development. What part the splash page stuff or interactive data management?

2019-10-04 23:31:29 UTC  

actually im probably gonna do both

2019-10-04 23:31:42 UTC  

they usually separate it into front end and back end services

2019-10-04 23:32:23 UTC  

but the front end is like emphasis on languages and the back end is a little more emphasis on analytics and networking

2019-10-04 23:34:34 UTC  

my daughter has 2 degrees in computer science and informatics. She's liking it but wants to do more of the analytics too. I try to push her into security (blockchain)

2019-10-04 23:34:40 UTC  

we'll see😂

2019-10-04 23:35:26 UTC  

yes. the blockchain is taking markets by storm. many people are deciding to use a blockchain for accounting rather than rely on a bank.

2019-10-04 23:36:43 UTC  

right, lots of opportunities that people are not looking at for blockchain as an enabling technology

2019-10-04 23:37:39 UTC  

the blockchain is also a very strong tool for just data management. large companies like IBM are using it to secure their intellectual property.

2019-10-04 23:39:20 UTC  

that is what I mean....it enables many more things than people have thought of yet. still very much emerging.

2019-10-04 23:40:01 UTC  

Still don’t fully trust or understand blockchain

2019-10-04 23:40:18 UTC  

blockchain is just an encryption system

2019-10-04 23:40:34 UTC  

its literally a chain of "blocks" or transactions

2019-10-04 23:40:55 UTC  

just means you have to maintain the whole record "chain" in order to update it
