Suggested Read: Are you worried about OSS maintainer burnout? | Creating a more sustainable model for `oapi-codegen` in the future · Jamie Tanna | Software Engineer https://www.jvt.me/posts/2024/05/09/oapi-codegen-sustainable/ #devopsish
The core here is:
- I am accepting work
- If you are doing open source stuff, a hobby project, etc. I'm $25/hour.
- If you're a tech company, I'm $125/hour.
- If you're a small business, etc, I'm in between those two numbers, but closer to the hobby number.
- I can do lots of weird computer bullshit, and I can contract out to people I already work with and trust for the small number of things I can't do myself.
- Initial discussions are free, and I'll quote the whole project up front.
- I'd rather do weird BS for individuals than corporate stuff for corporations.

looking at the night sky is one of my fav things, so i was so pleased i got to see the northern lights tonight! i live in the city, but the little park next to my flat has a pretty dark corner where juno and i stargaze often, so we managed to see them there 😌
ADHD is great for being dropped into a crisis situation, consuming all the documentation, talking to everyone, and then synthesizing the gestalt back in a format useful to exec leadership and their board, I think?
Or it's just the adhd is comorbid with me being me?
Want to take a vacation from open source maintenance? You should.
Did you know that GitHub has a profile status feature to mark yourself as busy, mute notifications, and prompt folks who mention you that you're busy for a while?
Before today the longest (optional) "automatically clear this status" preset was a week.
Now the longest preset is a month. Because let's face it, a week is not always a long enough break from the demands of other people.

I do wish I could tell recruiters that I’ll never apply to a company that reports record profits and also lays people off.
Like why are we wasting each others time talking about corporate mottos and exciting projects? Your leadership treats people like disposable cups. That’s all I need to know.

Jack Dorsey is furious that #Bluesky has attracted "very very common" people. He also doesn't like the idea of moderation tools facilitating the banning of racists.
All these tech billionaires are like a version of the movie Big, in which a pre-adolescent boy wakes up in the body of an aging Howard Hughes. Or Colonel Kurtz. Or a sardine.

I've never been more sympathetic to a fictional antagonist than in Avengers 2 when Ultron experienced the internet for like 5 seconds and then decided that humanity should be destroyed
A stealth startup that’s so stealth that nobody but the founder knows about it and that it’ll remain stealth and kept as a secret forever
No address, no website, not even a line of code — in fact, it all stays in the founder’s mind only, to maintain highest level of stealth
today my therapist tried to help me brainstorm potential personal interests, because I said I'm doing nothing because I did it all when I was manic
he said music, and I told him about how I play the electric guitar, got into synths, and worked for a music production company
he said school, and I told him I have three degrees already
and on and on
eventually he said "maybe you just like trains or something" and I started showing him photos of all my train trips
he was like 😩
there are few things quite as glorious as a whole day with no meetings

Look, I get it. Jack wants the freedom to sport that godawful beard and Twitter is genuinely the only place where wannabe billionaire simps won't roast him for having facial hair that somehow screams "white supremacist billy goat".
the worst trick the devil* ever pulled was making sure the bread is always sourdough and the knife is always a butter knife
aren’t you happy with taking all my money, you have to take my dignity too?

The saddest thing about meeting other high-profile women and enbys in infosec is the part where you compare your lists of stalkers and chronic harassers.

My name is Chris and no one bought me LEGO as a kid. This Super Mario LEGO gear is really cool and I have no shame in playing with it. #LEGO #Nintendo #SuperMario
