Looks like I got laid off today.

If anyone’s looking for a C++ developer with 5 years of experience, feel free to reach out. I also work with Python, Go, and C.

I’m open to freelance work too - programming and pixel art 🎨

Feel free to DM me 🙂💻

Why mention one reason to switch to Linux, when you can list many? 🫣

Guess I'll be switching away from a few tools...

Dear USA,

Donald Trump is exactly who you are.

Donald Trump is simply the #noFilter USA the rest of the world was forced to become intimately familiar with long ago; one dropped bomb and one lost family member at a time. The same USA Native Americans and African Americans have always known.

Until you fully grasp that and start learning about, accepting responsibility for, and atoning for how your country came to be and for your crimes throughout history both at home and abroad, this is what you will remain.

“This is not who we are.”

Bullshit.

This is exactly who you are and who you’ve always been.

You want to change?

Start by accepting that.

Big Tech is at it again.

Some of you might have seen this already. Google has announced a new policy for Android app developers, which would require them to seek Google’s permission if they want to distribute their apps outside of the Google Play Store (on their own website or on alternative app stores). This would entail:

1) agreeing to their terms and conditions
2) paying a fee
3) uploading a government ID

Which is wrong on so many levels. Nobody should be forced to register with Google if they don’t want to use their services.

In doing so they would be extending their gatekeeping (tentacles) into distribution channels where they’re just not a legitimate authority.

At Vivaldi, we believe you have the right to run whatever software you want on a device you own. That’s why we’ve co-signed this open letter, together with other 53 organisations, requesting Google to back off on the proposed policy before it enters into force.

(Plus, they have have a pretty cool logo 😄)
