Getting a messy divorce with fierce legal disputes and a cancer that requires expensive treatment boosts GDP.

Taking time off work to have a walk in the beach with your partner reduces GDP.

Why is this the key metric of success of our societies?!

Hey, I am looking for software developer work. I am familiar with C, C++, Java, and many other languages, but I learn quickly, and can probably learn the language you use.

I'm fairly experienced in modeling relational databases, working with Qt, Sqlite, Postgres, and SQL Server, SDL, and SFML. My specialty is Linux but I can target just about any POSIX-compliant platform, or Windows, and I aim to write portable code.

I've worked on Plume, a Fediverse blogging platform, Cataclysm Dark Days Ahead, a roguelike game, sqlite_modern_cpp(a c++ abstraction wrapper for sqlite), MuaLu(A lua based muck engine), and more.

I've dabbled in assembly and lower level coding, and would not be adverse to picking it up to work.

I am based in the US, specifically Tulsa.

I am available for contract work or remote work, though I am currently caring for someone who is disabled so I have to be remote, or at least have minimal office days.

You can get in touch with me via DM or through email through VioletWhite@espeon.social

"It feels like the last 20 years we've spent rebuilding all the stuff Unix users had builtin 20 to 40 years ago: online editors, shared home directories, etc. All sorts of things are repeating again.

One of the things Unix had was composability. If there's a table on a website now and one on another website, and you wanna join them? Fuck you."

Helen Pluckrose seems to be good at ginning up PR for what is basically a group blog, with extra anti-Semitism.

I'm pretty sure that heat dome that passed over us did a number to the poor leaves on our tree in the back. I wish I had a drone or something, it's hard to tell from underneath. But I see a lot of brown and leaves that look like they've been burned at the edges. That's not to mention the other plants all around that didn't fare so well under the intense heat. :(

Weil im Radio eben die Diskussion kam, warum auch vollst. geimpfte Pers. nach Rückkehr ausm Ausland in Quarantäne müssten etc.

Ich muss hier was los werden. Die Impfung soll euch vor einem schweren VERLAUF schützen.

Die Impfung ist KEIN Freiticket, egal ob Maßnahmen aufgehoben oder nicht aufgehoben werden/wurden.

Die Impfung verhindert NICHT, dass man sich infiziert oder andere infiziert, auch wenn die Viruslast geringer sein mag.
