A New Chapter After Lent

📖 Blog Entry:
Today, I wrapped up Ordinary Mysteries, Faith, Doubt and Meaning by James Hazelwood—my Lenten read—and dove into Hebrew. “Pil” means elephant, “Sher” means singing, and the word “Bob” resembles two L-shaped letters with dots, pronounced “bu” or “boh.” I’m learning by both sight and sound.

After work, I hiked up Cowles Mountain in 30 minutes and back down. At the San Carlos Library, I watched Professor Messer’s CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 – Network Infrastructure Concepts (3.1). I learned about network segmentation—physical and logical—VLANs, and Software Defined Networking (SDN). SDN separates function into layers: the data (infrastructure) plane handles packet flow, the control plane manages decisions, and the application plane handles configuration via SSH, APIs, or SNMP.
