Nicolae Bochis
Nicolae is a technology writer with a special focus on programming languages, computer hardware, and AI image-enhancing software.
He has ghostwritten dozens of programming books, as well as Linux and Windows guides, for children and complete beginners. He also constructed blogs from the ground up for small tech businesses to help them present their products and services to non-tech customers. His ultimate goal is to find the best solution and share it with others.
Helping people understand technology and how to use it for their benefit is what he enjoys most.
His love for everything that is tech started back in the 90s when he got his hands on Terminator 2, a cheap clone of the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) that was sold in central and eastern Europe. Nothing was more fun than talking about games, consoles, and computers with his friends. The path was set.
Nicolae launched his writing career while being on the path to becoming a full-time programmer. He discovered he had a talent for teaching others how to use technology and helping them decide which program or piece of hardware is best for their particular needs. Through constant research, testing, and writing, he continues learning new technologies to help others.
When he’s not writing, Nicolae spends his time pursuing the art of photogrammetry and developing adventure games. You’ll often find him wandering through the woods, seeking the most exciting tree stump worth photographing and turning into a 3D model.
