Yet another software engineer filling up the Internet with drivel. Toots about Clojure, Lisps, Python, JS, GNU/Linux, FOSS, Privacy, Emacs, DevOps, etc. β¨#nobot
@[email protected] I used to think of the home timeline as for βmy interestsβ but the problem is I donβt discover new people very easily that way (for clojure in particular i only have 4-5 regular tooters, despite adding nearly everyone I see that uses the hashtag)
Hmm, the local timeline on Mastodon.social is quite a stream of junk (not vile stuff, just things I have no interest in). Time to stop being lazy and move to less mainstream instance.

@[email protected] Companies that use Clojure are usually modern enough to also support at least partial remote working (part-remote jobs way outnumber fully remote ones I think)
Wondering what to put in the description field on an image? A quick guide: 1. Just say what's in the image--you don't need to say it's an image. 2. Describe only what's relevant to the conversation. "Annalee writing in a notebook" or "An example of candid portraiture" or "A person using a fountain pen" are all good captions of the same image, in different contexts. 3. All text that's meant to be read should be transcribed. Screencap? Transcribe. Sign in background of selfie? Don't transcribe.
