John Peck
(The Keymaker) - From Salty Seas to Code Symphonies - UK
Long before silicon symphonies echoed through data centers, there was Captain Peck. A weathered seafarer, a Captain in the UK Merchant Navy, who traded salty spray for the code’s infinite ocean. He didn’t just write programs, he sculpted them – crafting elegant algorithms in the dawn of computing, when machines were mere whispers of today’s titans.
His hands, once gripping ships’ wheels, crafted languages before computers even grasped their own purpose. He coaxed speed from clunky contraptions, building an airline booking system on ridiculously basic technology that left massive rival companies gasping in its wake. This, on a machine that most would deem a glorified abacus.
John is the Co-Founder of Catalytic Solutions International Ltd, based in the UK and is the lead and senior developer of Sportbot which is built on a highly sophisticated Expert Support System (Some people call this AI). The POLC platform is a global Expert Support System invented by Dr. Johan Bosch the founder of which Sportbot is the first module running on the platform. It’s a private eco-system, smarter, and faster than anything the world has ever seen.
John, we salute you! Your brilliance is our shield, your code our fortress and your dedication to this project astounding. We selfishly wish to keep you tethered to the DevOps realm for another twenty years and know your genius cannot be contained. So, with hearts full of gratitude, thank you so much for giving Sportbot life and what you have done for the Company.
