Hello everyone
I am a mathematics PhD student completing my dissertation at
Yeditepe University Istanbul working under Prof Ilhan Ikeda who is at
Bosphorus University Istanbul. I am involved in setting up some
seminars, keeping correspondence with other mathematicians or
mathematics students.
I worked for brief periods as a programmer mainly in python on small
projects.
Currently I am working with an electrical technician in Bursa Turkey
who is running an electrical electronical services store.
I am also interested in educational projects.
I am very much into using linux for academic work, I am willing to
introduce other people to linux and possibly set up a local linux
users group where I live.
I am thinking of setting up a server, both for local (at home use),
(I have already set up say samba server or openssh server) to be used
only under one modem. However due to lack of machines dedicated for
that purpose the server is not continuing.
I would like to make a server I set up say at home available at the
workplace as well so that I don't have to run back home while at
work. If possible make the server accessible via a smart phone or
some other computer.
Also in future possibly I would like to set up a web server possibly
for the shop and or for mathematical educational and linux related
activities as well as for myself and friends and maybe local
community.
Already gdrive offers opportunities for storing files etc. and wix
and some other sites allow you to build websites and I am sure there
are many other options out there coming from the cloud. But I would
like to explore, if you guys also thinnk it might be a worthwhile
endeavor too and worth the time, to use linux LAMP server or any
other option under the linux umbrella that might be worthwhile. I am
thinking of starting small scale since I am operating on a really
tight budget currently. And should I reach better circumstances
whether through finding some potential financial support or better
income myself, I would like to expand on number of things I try.
I am also in interested in humanitarian causes potentially though I
would not call myself very active or an activist I like reading on
such issues and discussing. One potential possibility is to develop
projects in relation to say immigration crisis to do with syria or
any other cause... even to help assist people in say getting help
with reaching or finding out about public services. But at the moment
all these are ideas. Nothing definite yet. I am exploring.
I would like to ask for suggestions like a roadmap that may be
worthwhile to follow.
Thank you in advance for any assistance and ideas and suggestions
and recommendations.
Sincerely
Semih Ozlem
