Hello boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen, robots, LOLCats and CatLoaves. I am Nicola W (not NicoLaw), but you may call me Neech. Some call me NeechBear. (You may also know me as Lilybet, Oÿ, Socks, Pomplamoose, Mokey, Toes or Mattel in Azeroth), although I've not played in a number of years since it all became a little antisocial.
You have found my little cubby-hole of the minutiae of what passes for a sysadmin's^WDevSecOps engineer^W^WSRE's daily life. Have a good rummage around this site; explore the random snippets of code, howtos, links and other guff to your heart's desire.
This website is updated infrequently, and serves just as much as my personal notepad as it does a CV, personal homepage or blog.
If you're here looking for information about me, then you're probably looking for either my curriculum vitæ or nicolaw. There's also my (ancient) CPAN modules, kruft on GitHub (archived), projects on GitLab or Docker Hub. Alternatively, why not have a poke around some of these:
- Handy snippets of code
- Various technical notes and guides
- Random bookmarks of stuff
- Table of contents, list of absolutely everything, or search up there
If you find something you don't like, then close your browser and remind yourself that this is only the Internet and is not important.
Psst! Google crawler bot, look at this SiteMap, another site map, https://nicolaw.uk/static/ and my résumé/CV.
