Idlethreat

Idlethreat is the current home for tgiles (see below) and the occasional guest author who has something interesting to belt out on occasion.

Wow, how does one distill a lifetime’s goals, aspirations, and really neat stuff into just a few lines of text? Since that’s pretty much impossible, I’ll ramble a bit instead.

I’m Tommie Giles and idlethreat is my site. She’s been through nine or so revisions over the years and I finally stopped jumping on the “CMS flavor of the week” and settled on WordPress for the heavy word lifting.

I’m an engineer; I delight on building things, and taking them apart again. I’m reasonably fluent in five programming languages (Python, Perl, PHP, Shell and SQL). I used to be a reasonably accomplished musician in another life, but spend more time in front of a computer keyboard instead.

I work as a compliance and security specialist at a local web hosting company. Security, compliance, and associated topics are of a great interest to me.

Hope you enjoy the site and stop by when you can.

Cheers,

tgiles

    So, is this site basically for personal use?

    Hi, Tim.

    I think in the 2 years or so that I had my Drupal site, I had zero comments ;)

    So, with this one, I just shut all the comments off.

    Anyway, turned them back on in the posts.

    Cheers!
