I did not survive the #Amazon #layoffs today.
If you’re looking for an energetic #Rubyist hamster who is interested in figuring out hard problems people haven’t solved before, with a track record of doing it at scale, hit me up. I’m also interested if you’re only looking for a fractional CTO to help your company out part time. Or some other collaborative role that might otherwise be hard to describe.
@ZiggyTheHamster I know it probably doesn't help that much, but I want to share this with you:

> It's not your fault Amazon hired you for a position that it no longer deems necessary – blame bad planning or unanticipated market conditions. Everybody guesses wrong sometimes, even with the power of the most sophisticated business analysis software and the smartest prognosticators one can hire.
