@ghostcatte I was dipping my toes in searching at now ex-company due to amounts of stress there. And woof yeah job market has been brutal even compared to 2023
@Bobsee Sadly what came next is 30 interviews and being told No by 2 companies after the final rounds(yesterday). So now I need to restart the search entirely from scratch 😭
Gusto is almost always hiring - check out our job board, and I’d be happy to talk about life at Gusto and/or put you in as a referral when you're ready! gusto.com/about/careers/join-t…
@kpl Would definitely love a referral to this role job-boards.greenhouse.io/gusto… Unfortunately for the other ones either lack seniority or have a different location 😅
I mean I can hand wave at one... But the new opening is on a team that doesn't yet have the advert up... Oh... We do have it up... job-boards.greenhouse.io/grafa…
While some of their member co-op's do remote work, they also work with a lot of co-op's and mutuals in other countries, so they may know of someone near you. :D
A staff engineer at Alkami Tech, which does banking code, said they were going to have some open reqs. They’re mostly remote, have great benefits and seem to have amazing retention. I’m not sure what’s open, but might be worth a look.
Oh hey, I work at relevant.healthcare/ and you seem very qualified for our industry and tech stack. I'm not sure if we're hiring right now but I am asking and I will let you know!
Relevant supports community health centers in their drive to improve patient health. We do this by providing smart, friendly analytics software, along with hands-on support and consulting to help health centers tackle all kinds of data challenges.
Just so you know: The most accessible way for me (personally) to read Google docs as a screen reader user is to download them in an alternative format, but that option seems to be disabled. If this wasn't your choice and it's just Google's UI being typically bad, please ignore.
@jscholes Sorry about that! I thought the download option was a thing here as I told several people to do that that in DMs well that might be awkward 😅 Do you know an alternative way of sharing a pdf? Sadly can’t share it by creating a link same way Apple Photos does it
A quick suggestion, add (hashtags) where you are searching. Country, region, city of remote. If you are looking for US jobs open positions in Europe probably aren't that helpful (or the other way around 🙃)
@realn2s True true, I'll try to incorporate that into the next post maybe next week or two. Want to see where this couple of applications will go, it was super helpful for finding companies that I didnt know were hiring
@realn2s Oh I didnt :O Mostly been doing bluesky lately. I do know on Instagram editing hashtags after posting a post does a big number on its visibility/performance, have you noticed similar here?
@underyx Thank you, I'd love to apply to this role! job-boards.greenhouse.io/semgr… Though I'm not sure if backend shops are my strongest given the full stack background, but listing description definitely seems like a good fit for a generalist such as myself :) What do you need from me for a reference?
the resume you shared is good enough! I sent in a referral 😇 we are actually in need of more frontend devs too, even if the careers page doesn't list it!
Any library folks follow me back? Are people over there talking about the disappearance of Nianli Ma from Indiana University's Wells Library, with US federal involvement? She disappeared with her husband, Xiaofend Wang, a prominent infosec researcher at IU.
I just heard that a cryptography professor at Indiana University had his house raided and was fired. Don’t know much more. heraldtimesonline.com/story/ne…
I haven't seen any conversation, no. Looking at her title, it looks like she was senior technology staff, but she's not someone whom I've ever met at library technology events. So not a known figure and probably being eclipsed in conversation by her husband and others. But fffffffffff.
@platypus Thanks. Do you have a sense of whether it would make sense for folks in the library world to ask around if contacts at Indiana libraries have additional information? I've been out of the library tech world much too long to know the current politics (and honestly was never great at university politics anyway).
(To be clear: "No, I don't know," and "No, that wouldn't make sense to do" are totally reasonable answers imo.)
I really don't know. I suppose what I'm not sure of is that this isn't quite like the street snatches we've seen elsewhere with the university taking down their profiles, etc. I was relieved to see your link to a post from someone with some knowledge of her husband.
If I end up in a meeting with a person I know there, I may ask but otherwise I'm really unsure of what to do.

hi, I really enjoyed reading your blog post. Thank you for making the font picker, that made it a lot easier to read for me.
I tried to run the command for the bad apple thing, but I'm only seeing a bunch of \035 in the traceroute instead of the actual characters, do you have an idea what could cause this?
@marie it may be the DNS server you’re using filtering stuff. You can try switching /etc/resolv.conf to something else temporarily (like nameserver 9.9.9.9, or directly nameserver 2a0d:eb00:8006::acab); just change it back when you’re done
Also, enjoying using SourceHut pages for doing this. Just a little build script using #Emacs in script mode and it does the right thing with links (link to an org-mode file becomes a link to the exported HTML)
@серафими многоꙮчитїи the last point is so important. I have a deep memory of getting my second ever computer in Highschool (my used Pentium3 had just died and my parents bought me a new one), and I got it set up and I was excited and my sister dismissively said "it's not new, all the windows look the same as your old one". I had this moment of "that's what I spent the last hour getting into place though!"
@silverwizard poorly-configured tools are like ill-fitting clothes. You look silly and it's not comfortable (but everyone's version of looking good and feeling comfortable is different)
@серафими многоꙮчитїи exactly! I am also a tiling window manager person! But I suspect our two configs are different! Because we both *want them to be* and that's cool!
Question for my academic librarian peers: is any serious conversation happening in any notable venue right now regarding the privacy and security implications of situating Canadian library user data in platforms run by US corporations? Seems to me we should be updating our risk assessments, particularly given the current administration's targetting of universities, libraries, students and faculty. Oh, and our existence as a sovereign nation.

I am in urgent job search mode, so I'm gonna throw this out here and see if anything comes of it.
I am a #Canadian, fluent in both #English and #French. I have experience with several programming languages. My strongest proficiency is with #Haskell and #C. I also have a reasonable grasp of #HTML, #JavaScript, #SQL, #Python, #Lua, #Linux system administration, #bash scripting, #Perl, #AWK, some #Lisp (common, scheme, and emacs), and probably several others I've forgotten to mention.
I am not necessarily looking for something in tech. I just need something stable. I have done everything from software development, to customer support, to factory work, though my current circumstances make in-person work more difficult than remote work. I have been regarded as a hard worker in every job I have ever held.
Hey! My company is definitely hiring bilingual French speakers. eagleteleservices.biz/careers.… It says they are only hiring in the US, but we need bilingual French speakers really badly.
@LoranJohn I honestly haven't touched LinkedIn in years. I never used of seriously. I'm going to have to reactivate it. My first priority was getting my resume updated.
I resume` shell is useful but I find cover letters more compelling. A simple one page missive showing you have researched the company you're applying to and have an understanding of why they may want to be hiring you shows initiative. Dress comfy, address the interviewers as equals to the point of inquiring as to their day and express annoyance if they stray out of bounds - you don't want to work for assholes.
hey! I'm a founder with myascend.ai. We're an early stage startup working on making professional networking suck less with AI Agents.

Thought I'd say hi and see if you're interested in chatting.
Thanks to everyone who has made my own feed-scrolling from the last week so interesting and enjoyable! What you've created and shared has made its way into this week's issue!
trust in me. I've tried it. It's not worth it. If you want anise in your coffee, grab some regular Pernot, not their absinthe, just plain Pernot. It's basically alcoholic anise and mixes fine with anything.
I'm really loving how Mastodon has become a refuge for all the grizzled seafarers on the ocean of the internet. They pop up in my feed and their bios all say something like
"I've been online for longer than the internet. I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. 56k modems on fire in the light of Usenet. I watched IRC forks glitter in the dark near the Gateway 3000. All those moments will be lost in slop, like tears in rain. Time to deshittify."
yeah, by the light from the fire we had to start to run the steam engine that spins the turbine in the emergency generator so we can update usenet via tcp over ham radio and a bounce off the moon to our friend jim's house in toledo assuming his mom's not using the phone right now and hopefully it's not cloudy there
@TheLancashireman Yeah, I've already had a mate saying "Pah! 2800 baud rate was all we had".
I'm not actually sure how fast(slow) my first connection was, because after I finished my MA in 1991 I was offline for about 8 years and missed all the very slow bits!
@katrinakatrinka @TheLancashireman No, you’d dial the phone and then when you heard it pick up, you’d press a big red button on the modem and hang up the phone.
The TRS-80 Telephone Interface was the first modem that Radio Shack sold for the TRS-80 Model I. According to the product introduction in the November 1978 issue of the TRS-80 Microcomputer News: …
I saw someone say something like "Facebook is where all the boomers and Gen Xers who need help with their computers live. The fedi is where all the boomers and Gen Xers who *designed and built* the damn computers live".
56k modems? You whipper snappers. I remember when we replaced our 300 baud acoustic coupler with a 2400 speed daemon! All that speed and way less line noise.
When Kermit wasn't just a frog Parity was not about dominance in sports leagues Norton commanded the'verse And HP products and corporate culture were admired
@PizzaDemon Oh god, HP products used to be -so good-! And like, cheap! The desktops were bricks that just worked, the printers you could drop off a truck mid printjob and they'd be fine.
Meanwhile my laptop before this one was an HP because there were no suitable Asuses (Asusii??) when I came to buy one. When it got stolen from my car I was annoyed, because expense, and hammering a new Windows machine into shape always takes about a fortnight, BUT I was also sniggering at the fact that someone was now trying to use my piece of shit HP machine that had been crap since I bought it.
and Speaking of printers and old tech, anyone remember chain printers? We used to screw around with gibberish output jobs to see how slow and or obnoxiously loud we could make the one in the U lab misbehave.

As Donald Trump triples down on his economic war against Canada, one of the things that inspires the most hope is the vociferous and passionate response of Canadians.
Trump and Vance are confused why everyone else isn't behaving like sycophants because they run the US.
Ok, let's sum this up. The thing that gets to me about the Signal chats is the Vice President of the US talking about bailing out Europe. There was a comment about how only the US could drone a building, which is wild, I feel like I could probably throw a bomb at a building using the contents of most kitchens. Sure - maybe the US's bombs and drones are fancier - but I think we need to zoom in on that.
The US administration thinks that it's getting value for its money on defense. There's a theory that the US military budget is being spent on getting stuff rather than mostly just a slush fund for defense contractors. But this leads them to believe that they're the most powerful people in the world and that they're as much stronger than any other country by the amount more they spend on weapons.
And because of that they think that Europe couldn't stop terrorists. There's a belief that people aren't shooting drones at civilians because they *can't*, and they're mad that people are relying on them to fire drones at civilians. They believe that everyone else is just ungrateful for their droning of civilians. They can't envision a world where blowing up innocents in an apartment building is considered a bad move.
Trump and Vance are confused why everyone else isn't behaving like sycophants because they run the US.
This is why he wanted Zelenskyy to say thank you! This is why the defense budget of NATO is so important! This is why they call him the Leader of the Free World! This Propaganda matters!
im glad you touched on spending as a poor metric of military strength/investment. Because I think about this a lot. I don't know if Europe is a good example, bc I feel (don't have actual data) that a lot of defense spending in the EU is contracts for private industry, as well. But China for example... China is definitely spending 0% on the profit margins of private industries. And that shit is going to hurt when our war-mongering leaders finally get the war they've been pushing for.
@silverwizard I didn't think it in so many words, but we got hung up on the same detail of this story. Not the poor OPSEC, not the unaccountability of Signal disappearing messages for public officials, not the vague disagreement between Vance and Trump, but the unwarranted jab at Europe.
@Hypolite Petovan To be fair, this is partly me thinking about your own thoughts (I read your post yesterday). But tthis line definitely was most formed with yelling at Zelenskyy for not saying thank you. But it's all fucked, but it's such background noise in all the warcrimes vomit.
I think the fact that they killed 50ish innocent people who no theory they were involved in anything is also wildly important to this stry!
President Trump’s targeting of South Africa is clearly tied to his influential adviser Elon Musk and a coterie of wealthy U.S. oligarchs, “all of whom in some way or other grew up in South Africa as children.
@Npars01 The informal comms no doubt exist all through the whole Federal government. If all your workplace communications were logged and potentially available to your enemies, wouldn't you have a back channel of some sort?
Something similar exists on Wall Street for the same reason. Remember the scandal where traders were colluding to nudge the LIBOR interest rate up or down?
The good news here is that people with access to NSA intelligence trust Signal!
Hot take: if I have to choose which war criminal to be my adversary, I would generally choose an incompetent one who leaks directly to the media than one who is competent and runs a tight ship.
My least favourite anti-pattern in everything is when someone gets the term Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY) stuck in their head. They then start building wrappers around an interface that has all the same inputs as their interface. So now you have 2-3 layers of abstraction on top of every interface, all of which add complexity. Because they are Not Repeating Themselves where things aren't the same. BAAAAAH
What struck me about the Atlantic editor being included in a Signal group chat about a bombing mission in Yemen isn’t the less-than-tight OPSEC, but rather the self-reinforcing propaganda even among top officials when Europe briefly catch a couple strays during the conversation. How is bombing rebels in Yemen “bailing Europe out”?
I keep naively thinking fascist grifters are above their own con, but not even.
Late last year, the German defence minister directed that a German naval task group not sail through said area because he lacked confidence in the assets' ability to defend themselves against Iran's children. telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/10/3…
Actually, where do you stand on the question re the UAE/KSA campaign against the Houthis before the USG told them to hold fire with Hodeida in their sights and despite the Houthis and Co attacking their own civilians?
@Ravi Nayyar I'm sorry I don't have enough information to answer this question, let alone understand it. But at first glance it sounds like classic US foreign policy, not surprising but still disappointing?
No need to apologise - neither do I have enough data to have an informed opinion on that issue.
Well, to be fair, US foreign policy re the Mid-east has noticeably improved since Trump 1.0. Look at the Abraham Accords, the I2U2 grouping and work on the IMEEC. Plenty more still to do, but there has been some good stuff.
Actually, where do you stand on the question re the UAE/KSA campaign against the Houthis before the USG told them to hold fire with Hodeida in their sights and despite the Houthis and Co attacking UAE/KSA civilians?
In light of recent events, I want to remind everyone that end-to-end encryption doesn't prevent you from adding the editor of the Atlantic to your private group chats.
(That said, if the editor of The Atlantic wants to join a chat with a bunch of gay furries talking about hacking and weird kink shit, I've got a few recommendations.)
I do jest though, I imagine if PGP was used there would have been an unencrypted passwordless private key sent to a not up to date repurposed mailing list.
There's no silver bullet technical solution to adding the editor of the Atlantic to your private group chats. We're just going to need to educate people about the risk : P
One of the worst parts of modern life is innovaton. One of the most annoying things that could happen in my economic life is if Kijiji Innovated. If Kijiji improved/changed it could only annoy me.
I see people being mad about "Dead Games", and I also see people mad about Live Service Games. My entire goal in gaming is for my games to never change. I don't want changes, I want to play, see the story, finish, or mess with systems.
I don't get the search for innovation in corporations, and I don't get why someone would want them to. I don't get why people get annoyed by a product not updating.
@silverwizard I keep circling back to the increase in bullshit jobs in product and marketing mainly. Without new stuff to constantly put forward, their entire job is at stake.
Although I believe this can also happen with engineering teams that were oversized at the start of a project to put out the MVP as early as possible, and then you have engineers twiddling their thumbs and scrambling to find reasons to stay employed, although it would more probably would take the form of refactoring and rewrites.
Nothing to do with customer desires, everybody is just trying to keep their job.
@Hypolite Petovan So I tend to work in companies with 10-100 people. I joke my career is turning companies from 10 person companies to 100 person companies and then moving on.
It often means my teams are unresourced - working with dev teams under 10 people. Often we'll have not enough bandwidth to do the things we need to do. But we primarily add to the things we have rather than improve the daily drive experience.
It's the same mindset as google only promoting for creating things and not maintaining things.
People's obsession with innovation is putting the cart before the horse. It's a (potential!) path towards an objective; treating innovation as an intrinsic objective itself is inane.
Sure, innovation may be required when established means can't achieve a goal.
Sure, when someone makes something we didn't know we wanted, their innovation can be retroactively impressive.
But just demanding innovation? "Why won't you change I dunno what to achieve I dunno what?!"
I really don't understand people's existential horror at Star Trek transporters.
If you're a materialist - why do you care if your body is preserved alongside your mind. Why is it a problem that you get stored in a pattern buffer?
If you're not a materialist - why do you care about the body and not the soul? Why do you think your soul would become untethered because of changes in your body? I don't get it!
I once had a conversation in a philosophy of the mind class, where we were spitballing some things on a similar topic.
A lot of our everyday intuitions on our idea of a "self" involve that self having an unbroken continuity. (Whether one believes this is accurate or not.)
Most things that break that continuity give us the heebie-jeebies when put under a mental microscope.
@trashHeap That's valid. I mean - I am kinda a Lockean on this one - where conciousness is the thing and discontinuity happens (I've fainted before). Sure, I get why it feels weird. But... it's such a meme at this point - I don't... get it!
Maybe it shines too much of a spotlight onto the fact that a person is, much like a legal entity, a fiction; created by shared understanding, which is also a fiction.
You cant move files onto a USB stick - you can only copy them, then delete the first copy.
You can believe in materialism, and computer-files, while still feeling uncomfortable with the full implications.
@Malin Interesting - so you think that it's about the ability to copy. Thomas Riker is the real prior art here - but also kinda the counter example. Mirroring the pattern was supposed to be impossible - the idea of copying something with the transporter is impossible properly.
Maybe it's true - the idea of digital information is what's causing the issue - computers can only properly copy - but as envisioned in the 60s there's this idea that you can be transformed into a "matter stream" and stored in a buffer and it's fine. But now people don't materially engage with that...
Riker's twin makes a great example, along with that guy with the fear of transporters.
I think the fear comes from really thinking about what the real process is, but you're probably right that people understand it more now from working with files.
@Hypolite Petovan If your game has the coolest magic sword in the world, and the PC who swings a sword isn't getting it, it's a wasted detail. That sword should be in the hands of the villain or the hero, or else fuck it.
Maybe some games will have players who all hate swords and it doesn't come up, but the expectation is that the cool parts of the game are used in the game!
@Hypolite Petovan If I'm playing A Game Of Magic Swords my sword can be cool because it's on fire instead of +1, and if I'm playing Grim Gritty No Magic my sword can be cool because the hilt is obsidian or because it helped fight off the Huns.
But don't say "Grim Gritty No Magic has the sword called Magic Sword and it exists but the GM shouldn't let a player have it because it's rare!

A hacker is someone who studies and explores systems. Generally because they find it fun. Many posit this attitude is innate as opposed to learned. I think that that's complicated but I am willing to believe there are innate hackers.
My son is an innate hacker.
He has figured out that if I'm leaving for something, he can always get more time with me by asking for another hug. If he's had 3-5 hugs I'll eventually give up. Meaning he offers me a hug, which always works. If I'm in my office because I'm "at work" he can offer to make me a cup of coffee and then he gets to see me (even if briefly).
The problem is that cutting off these behaviours make him sad and I can't do that.
This means I have a hacker child figuring out how to exploit me. This is really fun but also really weird.
i understand the connection to roko's basilisk, and i agree with your assessment there, but what is the connection to effective altruism?
i only just now looked it up on wikipedia; the pitch seems harmless enough, but it seems the people involved in it twisted it into something else. i found this paragraph which is perhaps the connection you allude to?
@lritter Effective Altruism is basically rebranded eugenics when you get down to brass tacks. They use a lot of flowery language about "preventing future suffering", but when you scratch the surface of how they plan to accomplish that it's just an excuse to remove the agency of people who are suffering now so they don't breed more suffering into the world. I'd agree the premise has been twisted, if it didn't come from a source that obviously created it as a cover for their fascist BS
@lritter I think the primary issue is that although Effective Altruism sounds reasonable on the surface, in practice it becomes justification for rich people to ignore existing, real-world problems in favor of addressing fictional ones (that often somehow result in people giving them more money).
@dalias @lritter this is totally me, and I think it's a reasonable position :) although I understand that people have had negative experiences with some people in the movement or adjacent, effective altruism is very diverse like any large human group and IMHO is disproportionately made up of overall good people. I think it needs to be OK to say that, happy to discuss further!
@flancian @lritter There are some good people who got roped into the cult by the evil people pushing it. They need help getting out not legitimization of the cult.
The people who deported innocent men to a torture prison in El Salvador didn't get hired yesterday. The people rounding up parents and kids who have been in the US for decades didn't get hired yesterday. The people who have seized multiple European tourists and put them through hell didn't get hired yesterday.
The Musk-Trump administration hasn't had the time to entirely turn over the ranks of yankee law enforcement, they didn't fire all the good cops and replace then with klansmen. The people doing this were by and large already there, they are the same people. They were always ready and willing, even enthusiastic, to do this.
The next time there is a social movement dedicated to taking power back for communities from law enforcement, remember this. Remember this is always who they were, this is always what these institutions were. When we entrust the power and safety of our communities to an elevated warrior class, that class of people becomes separate from our communities and develops a taste for power.
