Disclaimer: Workshop Rules of Engagement

Welcome to the fine print section of the workshop! While I strive to share useful ideas, code snippets, and perspectives based on my experiences here at esoup.net, it's important we're clear on a few things.

1. Personal Opinions Only:

Everything you read on this website – the blog posts, project notes, musings, critiques, and even the speculative "dreaming" concepts – reflects my personal views, thoughts, and opinions at the time of writing. They are mine and mine alone.

Critically, they do not represent the positions, strategies, or opinions of any entity I have been, am now, or will be associated with, such as past, present, or future employers, clients, or other organizations. This is my personal digital workbench, not a corporate mouthpiece.

2. Information "As Is" - Use Your Judgment (and Test Thoroughly!):

Think of the content here like notes scribbled on a workbench or ideas explored during an experiment. While I aim for accuracy based on decades in the IT trenches and ongoing learning, technology moves incredibly fast. Details might be missed, context might change, code might have bugs, and frankly, I might simply get something wrong or express an outdated view.

Therefore, all information, code examples, configuration suggestions, and discussions are provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, express or implied. I make no guarantees regarding the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability, or availability of any information found here.

Any action you take based on the information on this website is strictly at your own risk. Before implementing any technical suggestions or using code snippets, especially in important or production environments, I strongly encourage you to: * Verify assumptions. * Understand the potential impact. * Test, test, and test again in a safe environment. * Always have backups and rollback plans. (You knew I'd say that, right?)

3. AI Collaboration:

As mentioned elsewhere, some content or code might be drafted, refined, or generated with the assistance of AI tools. This is part of the workshop's exploration process. This AI-assisted content is also provided "as is" under the same terms outlined above.

In Short:

This is a personal blog where I share things I'm working on and thinking about. Treat it as such – a source of ideas and perspectives, perhaps, but not infallible gospel. Be smart, be careful, and enjoy exploring the workshop!
