The article ends with a reference to the Okjökull glacier memorial plaque, one of the most pre-haunted things I have ever seen:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Okj%C3%B

A brass plaque reading: A letter to the future Ok is the first Icelandic glacier to lose its status as a glacier. In the next 200 years all our glaciers are expected to follow the same path. This monument is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it. August 2019 415ppm CO2

When I ever have complaints about work I read the wiki page for Dizzy Gillespie

In 1941 Calloway fired Dizzy Gillespie from his orchestra after an onstage fracas erupted when Calloway was hit with spitballs. He wrongly accused Gillespie, who stabbed Calloway in the leg with a small knife.

🎉 I'm officially looking for my next opportunity! 🎉 I’ve worked in nearly every pixel-related role over the last 20 years, from low-level graphics development to film VFX to product design, and I’m looking for related senior roles. I’m especially interested in climate-adjacent work, but mostly right now I’d just like to make connections. My card: fjord.style

Keywords: graphics product design R&D prototypes art maps 3D frontend dataviz UI/UX animation models cartoons terrain scale.

I’ve never looked for work in public. Every position I’ve ever held has been through a referral or someone reaching out to me. I see other people posting about job-hunting in various ways, but I have no idea whether any of it is effective – mostly we don’t announce *how* we got work.

The last 16 months in tech have been gnarly. LinkedIn in particular has huge hunger games vibes, but job boards have always felt like an inefficient and impersonal way to connect with people.

news item from our local paper, 50 years ago

A clipping from a newspaper, reading: “Experienced diggers reported that clams were plentiful but mostly small. Experienced clams said that people were plentiful in all sizes.”
