Future of OSL in Jeopardy | OSU Open Source Lab

A nonprofit organization working for the advancement of open source technologies.

🌼 Hey Mastodon! 🌼

After four years at Oracle, I've decided to embark on a new adventure and am currently seeking new opportunities in the tech world. 🚀

I'm especially on the lookout for roles in Developer Relations/Advocacy or Senior Technical Writing/Docs Management. With two decades as an independent developer and extensive experience in developer relations, I’m passionate about connecting with the developer community and bridging the gap between users and products.

Here’s a bit more about what I bring to the table:

⚙️ Developer Relations/Advocate: I understand the developer mindset and have built strong relationships over the years.
✏️ Senior Technical Writer/Docs Manager: I create clear and insightful documentation, drawing from my extensive writing background, including blogging and working with high-profile publications.

In addition to my writing/advocacy experience, I’m well-versed in programming languages like Ruby, Objective-C, and JavaScript, and I also dabble in Swift and Python. My web development journey spans over 30 years, keeping my skills in HTML and CSS sharp.

If you have any leads, advice, or just want to connect, please drop me a message! I’d love to hear from you. Your support means the world to me as I embark on this new chapter. 🧑‍💻💖

Thanks for reading!

@georgetakei Bones Razor: "Don't think about something more than the person who said it did"

I'll stick with my fancy coffee for now, but this disillusionment has happened to me with things like task managers and other tools of my trade. Plus, it's a fantastically-written piece worth five minutes of your time.

The Case for Bad Coffee

Lately, something has changed. Lately, I've been reacting to fancy coffee the same way a child reacts to an accidental sip of red wine mistaken for grape juice. I don't know when it happened, but I've devolved into an unexpected love affair with bad coffee. It's not just instant coffee that I hanker for each morning, either, it's any subpar coffee I can get my hands on.

Serious Eats

A 19 year old has been given admin access to the core US treasury financial system by Elon Musk’s DOGE.

He goes by the name of “Mr. Big Balls” online, is on Russian forums, and has tried to purchase DDoS botnets.

Elon has said sharing this information is illegal, so please do not press the boost button.

DOGE Teen Owns ‘Tesla.Sexy LLC’ and Worked at Startup That Has Hired Convicted Hackers

Experts question whether Edward Coristine, a DOGE staffer who has gone by “Big Balls” online, would pass the background check typically required for access to sensitive US government systems.

@siracusa I’m praying Apple’s mouse redesign dispenses with plugs all together and use magsafe.
@ttscoff Expressed in Scaramuccis.
@ttscoff Have you started a deadpool for how long Eloy Musc will remain offically in the Turd Reich?

EDIT: I am informed that this did not happen

This is, and I cannot stress it enough, extremely funny

@marcoarment @caseyliss @siracusa If the notion is to use the phone for video, how about add an AppleTV super shrink to the back of decent goggles, and tweak AirPlay, in addition to local buffering? Use phone for a touch pad, and back tap as a click.
