Interview went well. They seemed to like me. Course, them liking me is rarely the problem. *Hiring* me is where everybody seems to get confused. So, fingers remain crossed.

Today a girl in my pole class invited me to her 21st birthday party and now I will diminish and go into the West.
Attached: 2 images Not quite what I expected the result of this decision to be
i have outright deleted a major patchset i wrote for a project under freedesktop.org stewardship, which someone else is probably going to write again in a year or two, because i realized the project had a real-name policy, and decided it wasn't worth it. i then lost motivation for the cool thing i was working on that needed me to write that patch this is not the intended effect of a "real-name" policy, but it is the actual effect. and, as the cool kids say, "the system is what it does". there is no such thing as a "real name". the concept of a "legal name" is fraught, and most certainly is not what you think it is, or what you are looking for, if you are a software developer. many assumptions you have about what a "legal name" is probably are not true. consider this: the name on my birth certificate is different than the name on my drivers license, and that is different from the names i am called by my friends. those names are all different from what is likely to be on my passport when i get it, and all of those are different than the name i publish my open source projects under. all of these, in different jurisdictions, might or might not be something you could consider a "legal name". which one do you want me to use when i submit a major feature to your library? are you going to turn me away if i try to submit it as "linear cannon"? why? if i have a website and contact information under that name, why does this matter? how is it substantially different than an author of fiction novels publishing under a pen name? does it change if i produce a piece of government-issued documentation with that name on it? why, or why not? if your real name policy does not answer these questions adequately, then there's a very good chance i'm just going to assume that you're going to turn me away, as has happened to me several times already RE: it would be nice if it were actually as easy to contribute to free/open source software as the developers and maintainers of such software claim it is but meritocracy is a lie, and bullshit policies and procedures (see: "real name" policy) scare away minorities who might otherwise do important work

Spotify is relentlessly adding new features at an impressive rate, none of which I have any desire to ever use. But an ‘I’d like to listen to this album/song at a later time of my choosing’ feature still doesn’t exist.

For anyone using oapi-codegen, note that v2 is coming soon, but that it's a very minor breaking change that 🤞🏽 shouldn't affect you at all!
As with all recipes on this blog, they’re designed to be easily made, tasty, and not elaborate. I’ll also not put lengthy backstories for them. I was in Exeter yesterday and stumbled into Brewdog where I discovered their delicious loaded fries. So today, I had a go at making something similar. The amount I used here could be shared between four people as a chunky sharing starter. Scale it down for a main meal or snack.

It's delightful to see that some communities that build Free and Open Source software still evolve their license terms the way we used to: getting consent from past contributors and doing the careful hard work. #OpenSource #FreeSoftware #FOSS #OSS https://github.com/zeromq/libzmq/pull/4555

This week I’m chatting with Steven Renwick, CEO of Tilores. As you’ll hear in the episode, we connected when I mistook Tilores for an open-source company. Steven graciously agreed to come on the show to discuss why they decided against making the product open source — which is actually a...

I know "I hope this message finds you well" is a normal way to start an email, but what about if I am in fact not well? Am I supposed to say thanks but this message didn't find me well??

On September 29th, Netflix shipped its final DVDs, marking the end of an era in physical media. So, we invited our friend Christina Warren (aka film_girl) from GitHub to pour out a drink with us and lament the end of this golden age of access to the films we all love.
Your salary is just your employer's monthly subscription of you.
Huge congrats 💜

My torrent downloader keeps telling me "The Continental S01E02 does not meet quality requirement" and having slogged through the first half of episode one, yeesh, truer words have not been spoken.
Here’s a little gift for you: If you were actually lazy, you’d be enjoying it. You’d be having fun.
Today we went to a cafe (one that serves both Horlicks and Bovril, to set the scene), and I ordered the biggest breakfast on the menu. When it arrived, I found out that my dear wife Sonia had made a bet with our friend about whether I would finish it. The worse bit is SHE TOOK THE “he won’t tho” SIDE OF THE BET
Fresh off Bun’s big 1.0 launch, Jarred Sumner goes one-on-one with Jerod to discuss the all-in-one JavaScript runtime that’s captured the interest of many.

Overheard someone loudly conducting a job interview on a table nearby in my office, and they just used the sentence "We're only a small team here so we all wear a lot of different hats" and THEY'RE NOT EVEN WEARING A HAT
The word "Trainspotter" is an anagram of "I, Trans Potter". If I were any good at art, I'd draw a cartoon trans Harry Potter noting down steam train numbers in their little book. Morning!
