I'm still looking for a job. Anybody need a programmer in the San Francisco Bay area? I'm a python programmer with experience in C/C++/Java/JS, I've done a bunch of CI/CD/SRE in the recent years, lots of tooling and back end web dev, and I've got a good deal of amateur experience doing reverse engineering and embedded development.
(I've done devops work but I'm trying to move away from that because too often it turns into just "ops", and I am a programmer.)

Hashtags. Where do they belong? In-line in the text or appended at the end? It’s a matter of preference clearly, since there seems to be a pretty even split in my timeline.
My preference is for end-note style hashtags. Why?
1. For many of us with vision or visual processing issues, interspersing hashtags throughout the post makes it harder to read and comprehend.
2. For people relying on screen readers, interspersed hashtags means hearing the word hashtag over and over again while listening to your post.
3. I like end-notes.

So, what’s your preference? Tell us why in the comments.

Just came across Terry Bisson's "They're Made Out of Meat" and this wonderful little short film that was made from it: youtube.com/watch?v=T6JFTmQCFH.

Drawing and painting birds are my most favorite pastime. the original photo by @BathNature
I couldn't resist the urge to draw this bird.

Anybody out there who can make an MS-DOS 6.22 boot disk on a 5.25" 360k floppy disk, put fdisk.exe and format.exe on it, and mail it to an address in the UK? A friend of mine is resurrecting some seriously old-school hardware and needs a bit of bootstrap help... :)

So...Ontario's population is growing & aging quickly. We're going to be short 33,000 nurses & PSWs. And patients are facing record high wait times in ERs right now…but our government is underspending on healthcare by $21.3 billion?

How does this make any sense?

“Just because he may not know how to spell ‘eviscerate’ or what it means, it does not mean he doesn’t know how to do it.”

It was more my girlfriend than me that wanted to leave Britain. I was on the fence - I love Scotland, I hoped for second indy referendum.

She said "We have to go. Brexit Britain is going to the dogs. The way things are in Poland, we might be pulled out of the EU too, or be kicked out of it. We need to be safe, in some normal country with our EU rights intact. Otherwise we'll be stuck between Brexit britain and right-wing Poland.

I've read the news today from Poland and UK. She is so wise!

Ctenosauphobia, n.: The irrational fear that somewhere, somehow, an iguana is watching you.

First post here, so I guess that's an #introduction :)

I'm a techie by trade, but occasionally get lost in the woods with a camera in hand. Well ok, I get lost a lot... sometimes even on purpose ;)

This one's for you #mushtodon #sporespondence #mosstodon!

The hashtags here rock!

New floofy bed got Barry's seal of approval!

(He needed a win, with house renovation messing with his favorite spots.)
