@doktorzjivago bienvenue aux scientifiques. Cela fait 8 mois que je suis sur Mastodon, je n'ai encore croisé aucun complotiste. Les platistes et autres reptiliens me manquent parfois un peu pour rigoler 🤫

I've been told that I'll be required to return to the office several days a week starting this month.

I have a vulnerable partner who would likely not survive covid. I am fighting this but it would be irresponsible of me to not start interviewing.

If you have a remote data engineering or architect opportunity, preferably Senior to Principal level, I can provide my resume. I have a ton of Snowflake and SQL Server experience as well as over a decade building in AWS.

We, the people of Iran, demand democracy, freedom, human rights, and equality, and the Islamic Republic is the main obstacle in the way of realizing these national demands.

We are struggling to transition away from this religious authoritarian regime through solidarity and drawing on the power of a non-violent and unstoppable process in order to revive the honor and pride of Iran and human dignity and prestige for its people.

One reason I'm avoiding MSN.com (which DuckDuckGo often directs you to):

A close-up digital watercolor painting captures a vibrant pink geranium against a serene white sky. The delicate petals and rich hues create a striking contrast in this botanical masterpiece.
