Okay, time to do a public post finally. Last week Forem/DEV did a rather huge round of layoffs. My role was impacted, though in a way that means I am still employed for a short while there. I'm grateful for that and for my time there. So, folks of #fedihire #fedihired, I'm going to be back on the job market soon. Right now I'd like to prioritize contract and/or part-time (or maybe 4-day full-time) roles in systems, infra, devxp, and web backends. Open-source preferred. Boosts appreciated! 🧵

🧵 pt2: I will, if freelance or part-time contracts don't surface, eventually head back onto the W2 full-time market. I'm fortunate to not immediately need to rush to do so, but expect me to probably start taking interviews to that end in late Oct through November if the sudden pivot into contracting doesn't play out. But I do think I'd like to explore this free agency a bit and see if I can find a working arrangement that allows me to help many projects on flexible schedules, rather than just 1

And for those of you who saw my "just use this simple TOTP thing" toot earlier to @neauoire, behold, this thing we found when I got tired of unfucking another C tool: https://github.com/angt/totp It's not for people who want their batteries included. To be useful you need to provide your own Base32 decoder. But if you're building some dmenu-based shit with a bunch of Unix pipes, or porting some C to Uxn..... this will be your shit for sure.

I've used *a lot* of "try to replace bash/zsh/dash/ash/fish" types of shells. Most of them I wind up not liking after a while because they get a little too crafty and a little too much like "real languages" than a shell language. Elvish was maybe the closest I ever got to liking such a shell, but I seem to recall various quirks driving me away. Koi, https://koi-lang.dev, looks like maybe my next such toy to play with. Seems to *really* keep that "hack it up" shell spirit, but elegantly.

@klardotsh is there a reason for trying to replace more standard shells? I like the standards 🤷

@klardotsh Ahhh you reminded me I actually tried really hard to implement an alternative shell in my min programming language: https://min-lang.org/learn-shell/ The idea isn't that bad: apart from the slightly counter-intuitive postfix notation, a concatenative language should work well as the basis for a shell (no need for pipes, weehee!). BUT I am not happy of the result so far because...

@klardotsh what do you think about nushell? I’ve been experimenting with that a bit recently and have been liking it

Oh right amazon.ca order confirmations are bilingual, I'd forgotten about that (my eyes read the email from the bottom up and so I was like "dafuq why is an Amazon receipt in French?")

I have no art skills whatsoever, but you know what I do have? Potatoes. Enjoy #theLogo in organic form :merveillesbg: (and then go show some love to all the artists on the tag doing really cool remixes of the logo this weekend!)

Thanks in big parts to @neauoire throwing out the design I had in mind for mounting these panels and instead proposing this way better location and method, and their help on the assembly side... My solar panels are mounted, and hot damn they look pretty. Not wired yet - that's a tomorrow problem. For now, dinner time!

Forgot to upload these last night. Here's Inner Harbour at the cusp of dark, with Parliament looking gorgeous as always.

Finally updated https://klar.sh/cloudy-day.html with tons of bullet-pointed details about the boat: the construction, the sails, the electrical, the instrumentation, some tools, etc. I will eventually make sub-pages for various bits of this because it's currently a run-on mess, but whatever, I'll have time for that Later (TM).

@klardotsh Great write-up :). Look forward to reading more about your projects and installations.

Josh plays with 9Front on MNT Reform: a thread It's fuckin weird, to start. I have a cursor at... what I think is the bootloader? Definitely one of the least discoverable UXes I've ever been greeted with to start a system. After fucking it up once I finally figured out that you just keep mashing enter and eventually reach a prompt. Definitely reminds me of early Gentoo/Arch/Crux in that regard lol... "just faceroll until something boots"

Hands down fastest booting OS I've ever touched though, once I figured out the "just push play" thing. It's like 2 sec from power to bootloader, and like 2 frames from that to this

Per the Ship of Theseus conundrum, this boat is officially no longer Cara Mia. We've removed so much unnecessary shit that it's finally, officially, unrecognizable (guts wise) as the boat I bought, and becomes Cloudy Day Real Estate today. Unexpectedly dead fridge? Gone. About 100lbs of redundant (or already dead / going nowhere, or so old and corroded as to be unsafe) copper wires? Gone. Old radio? Coming out. All the old AC charge and inverter systems that my new setup makes redundant? GONE.

TIL of "wofati houses", which are a heat-retaining log cabin-like design for cold and/or wet climates like the PNW and Montana. they're also hella cheap, well-lit, and seemingly spacious! |
