People who follow me may know that I've been without work for some time. I don't talk about it much. I was laid off from a public #benefit corporation undergoing some restructuring just as companies started firing engineers due to the "AI" hype.
I'm basically semi-retired at this point, mostly involuntarily, but I would love to find #work that I could feel good about to occupy some of my time.
I'm a #software engineer with two-plus decades of experience in a large number of areas. I've worked as an independent consultant in many industries, worked for a consulting company in many others, and held staff positions with tech companies of different sizes in various fields. Most recently I've tended to be designing and implementing APIs for internal and external use. I've been using Python professionally for 25 years, and personally for longer. The list of OSes, languages, and technologies I've worked with is long.
If you need some software-engineer-y things done but you're now saying "We can't possibly afford to #hire someone like that", keep reading.

I agree, the radioactive anthrax bomb built to kill people is completely neutral because it's a technology. *Amazing* tool! I use the radioactive anthrax bomb every day, and I only get a bit of radioactive anthrax all over everything. I'm running a conference, Radioactive Anthrax Bombs For Good, promoting how it's being used for a lot of good! Sponsored by OpenRadioActiveAnthrax, a California nonprofit
