Installation script for zoobc node

👋 Hi, I’m @iltoga and I am an software engineer with 30+ years of experience in the field (yes, I'm seasoned, but that's okay!).

👀 I’m interested in cryptography, decentralised systems, surf and snowboard/ski trips, yummy receipes and cultures different from mine (I am Italian, living in Bali with my family).

🌱 I’m currently learning Python especially working with LLMs, my production language is GoLang and I've developed micro-services for some years in Java (spring boot) and monoliths in php (yii, f3 and a little of symphony). I also do some javascript (react and angular) when I have to do UIs and many other old structured languages (Basic, VisualC, Delphi, etc.. ;) ).

💞️ I’m looking to collaborate on projects (better if open source) that have a potential positive impact on our life, especially in the field of privacy and data ownership/accessibility, such as decentralised systems (not only blockchains..), cryptography applied to data and integration between legacy systems and ai through LLMs (generative ai).

Throughout my long journey in IT, I began as a CX Cobol developer, working with IBM 3090 and AS/400 mainframes. Then I continued as a system administrator (MCSA) on Microsoft Servers in physical data centers (before "the cloud") and went back to my passion for coding. Over the past 10 years, I've witnessed the transition from structured programming to object-oriented and then to functional programming.

I've experienced the evolution of computers from mainframes to cloud services, from 8-bit single-core to 64-bit multicore home systems, and from BBS terminal archives and newsgroups to the internet and social networks.

Despite all the advancements, including the recent rise of AI, I believe the most significant revolution in the field has been the way open source and its community have evolved over the past decade. This growth has made a wealth of information and knowledge available for free to anyone with internet access, regardless of whether they are in the US, EU, Russia, or a developing country.

The open-source community is non-discriminatory and boundary-less: everyone is welcome, and when someone faces bullying, others typically step in to help.

Open Source is real freedom in our time! :)
