Moje okolice takie fajne, ludzie mili i spokojni… Skutki pościgu. Dwie osoby aresztowane i… Ciekawe co z kierowcą uciekającego auta zrobi firma ubezpieczeniowa policji.

Our paid work experience programme is getting another cohort and the job ad has just gone up!
It is mostly Web-based work, but we've also helped out on a mobile app, and another AR/VR app to help learn sign language.
Not sure how many #JuniorDevelopers near the North East we have on the Fediverse but, if you know anyone it'd be a fit for, please share it around.

The contrasts of humanity, eh? Massive appreciation for those who helped with the clean-up, and who showed that the first picture here, of damage to a beloved heritage asset and valued place of learning, is *not* who we are. 🙏
Another #introduction as I shard myself around the Fediverse. I'm Jon, a front-end-turned-a-bit-of-everything #WebDeveloper based in #NorthEastEngland You may have followed me at @jonspark
I’ve tried to run micro-agencies but I’m happy being a freelancer, though I still have a few opinions about #accessiblity in recruitment. I like #NodeJS, I’m learning #SvelteJS, and still spend some time in #PHP and #Laravel, when asked.
I’m currently #mentoring a team of 10 in Sunderland.
