<p>I teach information technology at the community-college level in Central Texas. My classroom blends structured curriculum with a relaxed, community style — a lot like troubleshooting a vintage radio while sharing a plate of gumbo.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>When a platform update breaks a thousand identical PCs, the fix isn't a newer certificate or a bigger hammer. It's tracing the <strong>signal path</strong> one stage at a time. That's the whole of my teaching, whether the stage is a vacuum tube, a network switch, or an emulation layer.</p>

<h2>New: The ARM Wall</h2>
|
||
|
|
<p>When Outlook and Teams went dark on ARM-powered PCs this week — same app, same Friday, but only the Surface machines broke — thousands of IT desks lit up. My new short film <a href="/films/the-arm-wall/">traces the signal path</a>: why the emulation layer is the fault, and the three things to check before you reimage the box. It's also on my <a href="https://alexander-riobe.mov">4ort.mov channel</a>.</p>
