Caring about politics, writing, science fiction, coding and stuff.

Professional computer toucher.
Semi-professional vibe-salter = still avoiding covid.

I can't afford a house because of too much avocado toast.

Wants to visit/live in Aotearoa New Zealand & Australia at some point.

Something like a newly hatched enby.
Usually moderately annoyed with things.

It's only AI if it's from the AI region in California. Otherwise it's just sparkling autocomplete.

With apologies.

A four-pane cartoon featuring different animals.
Heading reads: “Which animal inspires your success strategy?”
Panel one shows a cartoon spider with the caption “I rely on myself and complex strategies for success”
Panel two shows a pack of wolves: “My group relies on loyalty to each other for our success”
Panel three shows a herd of gazelles with a lion hiding in the bushes nearby: “Look, I hope we all make it, but if there’s any trouble I’m gone”
Panel four shows a sloth hanging upside down from a tree limb: “Dude, I’m just trying not to fall out of this fucking tree”

This flag by South Downs National Park. Too good not to share?

Fuck I love Mastodon! No other platform has ever given me as a Blind person such access to the public sphere as I've gotten today from alt text of protests in the United States. Thanks to all you gorgeous folk for demonstrating that inclusion matters, cause it sure does to me!

@briankrebs have you seen this? If this is the state of things then it's way worse than I'd have imagined:

@jkirk I bet every intelligence agency around the world is currently frantically scrambling get an in with some of these impressionable, unvetted and untrustworthy children that have been given access to critical systems. It's just so obvious.

Hey fedi, I'm looking for a new job!

I'm a backend software engineer with ~6 years experience, primarily typescript and postgres lately, with a lot of experience in software architecture and building new projects from scratch.
I'm a jack of most trades and have touched upon lots of other technologies and arcane debugging rituals and have a pretty good understanding of the ~full stack~.

I'm eager to learn more rust or something completely new to me like erlang or elixir!

I'm in germany and looking for something remote, ≤ 30h/wk, that ideally makes the world a better place! (or at least doesn't make it worse, so no LLM, cryptocurrency or defense bullshit)

If you have any pointers, questions or want to forward my CV, please reach out!

💜 :sparkles_trans: :BoostOK:

Me when I’m a little extra confident about my dumb little doodles

4 panel comic: Panel 1: a pink lil wonky guy holds a pencil and he says “let’s go” Panel 2: he is drawing something with the pencil. By the way he’s wearing a little blue artists beret and there’s a glass of water on his desk because he’s a hydrated king.  Panel 3: he holds up his drawing of a wonky doodly grey cat. The artist says “honestly..” Panel 4: he feels very proud and puts the drawing down again next to his pencil and water. He says “call the Louvre”

Über den Umweg der niederländischen Low-Covid-Website hatte ich vor einigen Monaten den Twitter-Thread der in den USA lehrenden Pathologie-Dozentin Kaveri Roy entdeckt, der mich mit seiner Wucht ziemlich beeindruckt hatte🤗
👉 locovid.nl/docent-pathologie-v (auch im englischen Original dort nachlesbar, on point!👌)

und nun habe ich ihn ins Deutsche übersetzt📄 , da dieser Text eine besondere Bedeutung für mich hat und meine eigene Geschichte streift:

Auch ich bin - genau wie eine ihrer Studentinnen -

Der Screenshot zeigt unter der Überschrift „Docent pathologie vertelt studenten de waarheid over Covid19“ 
(Dozentin der Pathologie erzählt Student*innen die Wahrheit über Covid-19) einen ins Deutsche übersetzten Twitter-Thread von November 2022/23, in dem die in den USA Lehrende beschreibt, wie sie aus ihrer kompetenten und glaubwürdigen Perspektive grundlegendes und lebenswichtiges Wissen über Covid ihren Krankenpflege-Schüler*innen mitgibt inmitten des um sich greifenden Versagens der Öffentlichen Gesundheit. Ein hoffnungs- wie kraftvolles Zeugnis menschlichen und ethischen Verhaltens, wie man es sich viel öfter von verantwortlicher Seite gewünscht hätte!
