Hello Steemit Community

lnakuma in #introduceyourself • 5 years ago

Greetings, I am Xiang from Colorado. My career path is Information Technology, but ironically I am new to cryptospace.

My life has been full of surprises. Born in china; moved to New Jersey when I was in high school; joined US Armed Force after 9/11; Decided to stay in Colorado where I was stationed after two tours to Middle East; and now enjoy the scene of snowy mountain between October and May.

From nerdy engineer to a solider who was in charge of fire 50 Cal machine gun, back to a nerdy IT manager; from the first scary/sleepless night we got mortared in theater to just to go back to sleep unless shrapnel hit our body; from the time I personally against deploying a VMware because of lack of hardware resources to managing a virtual environment with thousands of machines to now implementing containers that support Artificial Intelligence and Blockchain. I enjoyed every moment of my life.

Recently I have contributed couple workforce related projects here local in Colorado Springs. There is when I felt I should start sharing my experience, excitement, and maybe some "dub moment".

I see Steemit as a great opportunity for content sharing throughout the world, and I want to be part of it with my stories. As a late comer, I am definitely looking for suggestions that could guide me through my journey on Steem.

Thank You.

Welcome to the Steemit community @lnakuma!
We sincerely hope you find everything you are looking for and have found a new home here.

Eight suggestions to consider:

Guard your passwords carefully, and only publish with the posting key,
Use your active key only for wallet transactions, keychain and steemconnect,
The master password is only used to reset compromised passwords,
DO NOT lose your passwords; copy and store offline,
Do not publish other people's work, be it photos or written, without credit,
be sure to source all of your work, even if it is your own.
An introduceyourself tag is used only once, and
When you open your steemit.com, in the upper right corner of the page there are 3 bars. Click on those, and then on the "welcome", and you will get a lot of reading material that will help you.
Do NOT open any links in memos or comments that you do not know who they belong to. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is, so the old saying goes. There is nothing free here.

I found you because @xcountytravelers and @brittandjosie from @heyhaveyamet presented and promoted your publication to get more exposure and help you grow faster.

If you find yourself overwhelmed and need some guidance, or if you have any questions, there are informed Steemians available who can help you; you can click to go to the Steem Terminal in Discord here:

Have fun and happy Steeming!
