Hiya! I'm a programmer looking for full-time work in the SF Bay Area (or remote!)
I'm primarily a Python dev, but I've got significant experience in Java, C#, C++/C, Ruby, and JS.

I've focused a lot on Continuous Integration in recent years but I've got experience with in-house tool development, embedded software, back-end server stuff, and UI/Web/HIL test automation.
I've a lot of experience in digitization/archival work.

My resume & email:
https://wiki.foone.org/w/My_Resume

Thanks!

@foone what is continuous integration? And is it a good thing?

oh sweet jesus.
I'm applying to a job for doing UI/web testing, and I can't actually submit my resume, because their webform is broken.

I CAN SEE WHY YOU NEED A WEB TESTER

wait what if you use a GPL'd art design for a tattoo?

@foone doesn't that only matter if you're using it for commercial works?

@austincnunn Nah. GPL doesn't know or care about "commercial"

Someone really needs to develop a lightweight VM container that we can stuff software in. Like, you know how you can buy DOS games on steam, and it just gives you dosbox preconfigured to play the game?

That, but for all software on all OSes

@foone If you don't care too much about it being virtualized, you're basically describing libretro (the thing retroarch is based on)

Were it not for nvidia drivers despising VMs, we'd have this already.

@foone i personally am starting to think that the jvm was a good idea with an absolutely terrible implementation. wasm+wasi might possibly work as a language vm

The problem with being a weird geek like me is that I've seen the coolest thing I've seen in years and it's a DIY pie launcher

@SkylerRingtail @Fruitkitty yeah I'd sign up for that job right away.

Maybe we need to set it up as a contracting thing. "Hey, do you build kinky machines? are you afraid they're gonna hurt somebody? Hire KinkQACo to do a safety assessment!"

I bet @qdot would have some input

@foone @Fruitkitty @qdot

As former software QA myself, I would also sign up right away.

I can see the application now... "As a former QA person and current kinky asexual, the one thing that excites me more than anything else is working out the kinks in your kink devices!"

Or the company advertisement...
"Kinky AF and ready to help you debug your teledildonic devices. BugChasers LLC - we catch 'em all, so you don't have to."

...The name might need some workshopping.

I just was thinking that my mouse wasn't tracking very well and automatically flipped it over so I could try cleaning the ball.

it's 2024, of course it doesn't have a ball, this is an optical mouse!

but apparently my computer reflexes are stuck in 1996

I know we've moved past fiber-wrapped cables for Good Reasons but I think it'd be funny if some of the Rope Geeks produced ethernet cables.

I want a hemp cat6 cable damn it.
It should come with rope oil and those emt safety sheers

I wanna see a 3d printer designed by woz.
No limit switches, it just bangs the print head against the casing on boot up like an apple II drive

Zitruskeks ,
@Zitruskeks@chaos.social avatar

@foone Prusa does this for ages now, instead of limit switches it uses the current sensing it already has for collision detection instead of limit switches.

Works a charm and is super precise

So its not WOZ/Commodore style head banging, but very close to.

@foone I've experienced this on a printer before. The sound it makes is horrifying.

Bad idea: since there's a mechanical limit to how much you can cool down a CPU, design a motherboard with a rotary barrel.

While one CPU is used, the other five can be cooling down!

@eniko you colorize the dialogue boxes for every character?!

Did you wake up and decide "I WANT TO MAKE MORE WORK FOR FOONE IF THAT PUNK EVER TRIES TO PUT MY GAME IN THE GENERATOR!" :)

@foone there's gonna be an NPC one that doesn't have a palette entry cause it uses the colors of the character for the borders while having a grey background
