My Mastodon is more personal than professional but — since I know a lot of folks have been affected by layoffs or are looking for work rn — my company is hiring (mostly marketing, sales, and software engineering roles).

It’s good work: We help K12 schools manage all the software kiddos need in school. All roles are remote (though we have a nice office in SF if you’re local).

If you are interested or have questions feel free to reach out — and please boost!

Honestly, I swear at least 75% of my time is taken up with me wondering what I was about to do before I got distracted.

After much waffling, I’ve just released a new version of a #Python package that I haven’t advertised much until now, but that’s in prod with virtually every of my work projects: https://stamina.hynek.me/

It has a single purpose: to help you write correct retry logic effortlessly.

If you’ve looked at it before: it now has proper docs, support for async, and retries of arbitrary code blocks. And if you wonder what the big deal is, check out the new tutorial: https://stamina.hynek.me/en/latest/tutorial.html

Thou shalt not be mean to people because you think God wants you to be a jerk. I don’t, ok? Don’t be a jerk. Gah!

Now for the fortnightly tidy up before my cleaner comes!

#lifehack I learned recently:

When reheating fries, or anything with a crust, the answer to the question "microwave or toaster oven?" is both! Microwave first to warm the center, then toaster oven to heat and crisp the outside.

Further to that last boost, if you have to edit your own work in a document, shift the font to something different. Not Wingdings different, but just to different script. Read over it again, it’s MUCH easier to edit and improve that way, because your brain looks at it anew. Can’t remember who taught me that, but it’s SO useful. #lifehack
Another useful app I’ve only started using recently but might be helpful to other neurospicy people is Goblin Tools.
It’s iOS only but the website version is free: https://goblin.tools/
It has several really useful tools to help with executive function but my favourite is the Magic Todo.
You type in any task and it breaks it down into manageable steps.
If any of those steps seem too much or you’re not sure where to start, you can break them down even further. #ADHD #ActuallyAutistic
