Who I Am
My name is John Cabaj, and I'm member of the Ubuntu Kernel Team. I help maintain a variety of Ubuntu kernels and related packages in accordance with our Stable Release Updates Cycle. I also contribute to several Ubuntu Cloud Linux Kernels.
My Ubuntu Story
My first experience with Linux was during university around 2010, using Ubuntu 10.04 (or thereabouts) on a Dell XPS M1730. I recall the experience out of the box was promising, though WiFi drivers back then were a bit more of a hassle (can't access the internet, and can't download the driver because you can't access the internet). I then installed Ubuntu on a Dell Netbook (remember those?) so I could avoid going to the school computer labs to do my OS coursework.
When I graduated and joined a local startup, I primarily used Ubuntu 14.04 and dove into bash scripting various portions of a machine learning pipeline. I then joined a medical device company which was primarily using CentOS. There I worked with the RT kernel (via the PREEMPT_RT patchset) primarily writing user-space applications running as a systemd service before joining Canonical in 2022.
