Ayooo, I'm looking for work.

I want to design big picture stuff: systems, solutions, architecture. Roles where I own the tech and make things happen, working with the people who'll actually use it. I maintain FtrIO and build things like alive.name, a git deadname scrubber, on the principle you should own your tools, not rent them.

Available instantly in the UK. Open to Ireland too, I'd just need a little runway to sort the logistics.

Boosts hugely appreciated 🩷

"To prove you are a hero, you must slay a dragon."

"They're all dead."

"Well, then you must slay a dragonslayer."

"They're also all dead."

"Dragonslayerslayers?"

"There's one left."

"Great! Then-"

"He's ninetyseven years old. Listen, I just want to help people."

"I guess that'll have to do."

ISO is especially not a good fit for multi-session or multi-track CDs.

Social media creates the illusion of ultimate free speech. You can post anything! And if what you say is popular it will spread far and wide. It seems like a free market place of ideas.

But in some ways it's a bit more like a newspaper: a collection of information filtered by an editorial board. This can vary a great deal by topic and by platform.

The claim the social media was free and open ended when "timelines" or the selection of posts that users see were subjected to an algorithm.

@Weirding_Is_Real So it occurs to me you've had lock picks and practice locks for some time now.

How's your life of not crime coming along?

Please use open source systems whenever possible so you can review the source code. Encourage vendors you work with to stop keeping their software hidden so it can be audited.

Exaggerating your infrastructure plans is a very normal and healthy sign for your industry that is definitely not a bubble.
