What do you think?
Suggestions welcome!
David Culley@aral @malteengeler I wonder if I specialized in the wrong niche in order to work on Small Tech. I wonder if there is demand for data engineering in Small Tech.
If I were a web developer, I could spin up something like https://gaza-verified.org myself. If I knew Go or Rust or whatever (and had more ideas), I could build some app or service that helps people in a meaningful way.
But I specialized in organizing data. Like someone who hasn't organized their closet for a long while and calls Marie Kondo to clean up their wardrobe, I'm the Marie Kondo for data. I know how to move (big amounts of) data from here to there, and how to organize it so that information is easily accessible and insights are facilitated. Without people like me, data is just noise.
I was told that data is the new oil/gold/electricity. And I do believe that there are use cases for doing good, still waiting to be discovered. #socialism #PlannedEconomy Otherwise I'd probably already have switched careers.
But my specialization is most useful with large datasets. Small datasets aren't in such dire needs of good organization strategies, same as you don't need Marie Kondo when two pair of shoes and three shirts is all you own.
I wonder if my specialization is useful only to Big Tech.
Does anyone have ideas for how I could use my skills for Small Tech? Does maybe even anyone has uses for someone like me? #FediHire
I didn't study this to be a cog in the ad-tech surveillance machine. 😒

Cat 🐈⬛🛰️ @catbailey needs help again to deal with a $2400 surprise power bill that she had thought was taken care of. Apparently the power company changed their mind or something. And now, they want it paid before October 30 or they will cut off her power.
Please help Cat deal with this surprise bill.
She is still looking for work. No one is hiring her yet.
If you know of anyone hiring right now, please let her know!
The end of the month comes next Friday, and that means another month's expenses are coming. If you can help with those, that would be greatly appreciated as well!
Venmo/PayPal/CashApp are best and those would be received in time to pay the bill, but GoFundMe is also appreciated and good for higher latency needs.

turmoniI suppose it's been checks notes eight months, I should probably think about looking for a job!
I'm UK-based, looking for remote work, doing interesting software development of some kind (open source would be preferable, but not a deal-breaker). I'm most comfortable in Python (both real computer and embedded via MicroPython), with over a decade of experience in it, but am fairly flexible. Please let me know if you know of anything suitable!
GaffenJust got terminated 8 days into a new position for not being prepared for a meeting I wasn't briefed on. If anyone knows of any senior fullstack engineer positions, potentially even mid level, especially if they involve typescript, frontend JavaScript, python, php etc. let me know! #FediHire #FediHired #GetFediHired #OpenToWork #BoostsWelcome

@VdAKluttig das ist bestimmt auch für #fedihire interessant
Matt BruntYo!
I'm looking for my next thing.
I'm a backend dev (primarily PHP with 15+ years professional experience), conference speaker, and a bit of a nerd. I've worked in #Fintech, #CyberSecurity with SANS Institute, and most recently #TrustAndSafety and #Authenticity with Bumble at scale.
I'm interested in something remote, I'm UK based. Engineering or engineering-coordination type jobs!
If you know of anything, hit me up!
