One thing that is amazing about this forum is that there is such a broad cross-section of people and professions, that you can find an answer on nearly any topic you choose. This thread is intended to collect a list of people and what their expertise is. Sound off and let me know what you think you are an expert in!

I'll start. I'm skilled in computer development, particularly C#.NET, MS SQL, Informatica, Azure ADO (CI/CD pipelines and repos and the like), and Agile practices.... among many other things.

You caught me. I’ve been Deep Cover FBI since 1999, and FINALLY decided to spring my trap.

I build giraffe patterned stilts that make impregnating a giraffe much easier.

Also, bring along a case of long-necks.

What is the planned use of your OS?

Is it intended for personal, business, scientific or educational use?

Will you release it commercially or open source?

I used to be kind of pert, but not so much anymore.

I guess that makes me an expert.

There was a time a while back when I was a nuclear chemist though.

I’m an expert at knowing where to poke holes in the ground to bring forth vast mineral wealth. Mostly for someone besides myself.

I’m an expert dilettante and serial obsessive. We’re good for pretty much nothing except cocktail party conversation.

I'll chime in for C. I'm not as much inclined to C++ because of the overhead; if I wanted a more memory-safe language I've heard Rust has become a favorite, to the point where Linux is now allowing it in kernel development -- that's a big deal. I haven't looked into it yet and probably will eventually.

But standard ANSI C will always be my own go-to language for anything where I need to have control of the reins, which in operating system development is absolutely essential. Yeah, it's not "safe", but if you need training wheels and holding Mommy's hand, you shouldn't be writing operating systems.

just rebuilt an 86 Pro 50LG Yamaha. put it back together and started right up!! Cylinder Bore and new Pistons. Ran smooth as silk!! With the new gasket between the power head and the lower, I coulndt even here it!! then the problems started!!

the new designed oil pump was a mess. over supplied 2 carbs and the third carb, the clear oil line never filled between pump and carb.(gas is pre-mix 50:1 for break in)

this caused the eninge to miss and thunk thunk...stall. upon starting back up, water stopped peeing... took off lower unit and rebuilt the water pump np... start motor back up and pees wonderful. but because of the oil situation i got the thunk thunk... thunk again and then stall again. start back up and no pee.

NO ONE i can find around SE Michigan will work on a motor that old!! even for this seemingly mild problem...

I’m someone who doesn’t want a long-necked orange-spotted love child. And who is afraid of heights.

I've heard Rust has become a favorite,

I heard a female cinema-photographer got killed in the development of that. I'd steer clear, myself.

I used to be disgusted, now I try to be amused.

(getting tougher and tougher - the disgusted is just so much more disgusting than it used to be.)

King of the vintage rock/pop music trivia. Won lots of beer in trivia contests back in the day.

Can also do pretty good with vintage TV comedy trivia too.

Oodles of useless information

I am an expert at stealing Jokes!!!!

I met a magical fairy yesterday who said she would grant me one wish.

“I wish to live forever,” I said.

“Sorry,” said the fairy, “that is the only wish that I’m not allowed to grant.”

“Fine,” I said. “Then I want to die the day after Congress is filled with honest, hard-working, bipartisan men and women who act only in the people’s best interests!”

“You’re a crafty little bastard,” replied the fairy.
