My mom used to do environmental activism. All by herself, she got earth day and a recycling center going in town, and was a whistleblower about Dow chemical using agent orange. She was mentioned in Time Magazine for it.
Then she went to a barbecue for environmentalists. They put her down for wearing red lipstick and long nails.
And then her activism days petered out because she didn't want to hang out with these people.
Make sure you can see the forest for the trees.
Does #GetFediHired work?
Does anyone have a real, positive experience finding work here?
I would like to be working again, more often, and at a high level. I want to have to think hard again!

Follow-up to this, I am noticing that what I gravitate towards more and more is a job that aligns with my values & morals. I want to do at least *some* good in the world - it should be a net positive.
ALSO incredibly hard to find. Nonprofits, charities, green tech, urbanism, anything?
Preferably remote in #Canada, but would consider hybrid in #yeg.

FWIW, I'm finding it rather worrying that a person with your views is working with @EUCommission, and has an influence on its policies.
I’m being haunted by a reverse centaur, so here’s my attempt to #GetFediHired
I’m a primarily backend software engineer that loves automation. I write honest tests and sincere code. I talk to people eagerly and awkwardly. I eschew AI. „Spec driven development” offends me deeply as an evil vibe coded caricature of my usual practices.
I work with Ruby, Elixir, JS, Python. I occasionally use Golang and Rust.
Most importantly, I would love to work with humans to solve human problems.

Good! They're laying off humans at a record pace in order to juice their stock prices and further facilitate this bubble. Take 'em all out.
I deliberately collect dead tree books about cars (going back to 20th century, although I have a few more modern ones) and magazines published by reputable sources, and keep an eye on forums where there are real humans, as otherwise there is so much dubious AI-generated info around about car-maintenance (the worst part is its often 80% correct, but getting the other 20% right is *important*)
