With a great ammount of training and support from [[Rhys Milling]], in April 2022 Jamie joined the computing team with his python experience and limited knowledge of linux operating systems, from messing around with a Raspberry Pi. Jamie started off by taking on the project of making [[Karen]] more automated and during the preperation of [[Roses 2022]] he created a user area for editors to use. In the early morning of the 6th May 2022 (just after Roses), while editing the general editor user area, Jamie accidently leant on the keyboard while connected to web server and managed to reboot web into an error loop, causing the website and computer domain to go down for a couple hours before it was fixed by [[Liam Burnand]] by instructing Jamie to press 'Ctrl + C'.

A key point in Jamie's computing career, although not actually involving YSTV, was when he managed to delete an important shared directory for a physics research group on York's Viking Cluster. This event cemented his position as a true member of the computing team, even rivaling many of [[Liam Burnand's]|[Liam Burnand]] own fuck ups.
