The company I work for is looking to hire or contract with senior-level #Rust engineers. #Statistics or #MachineLearning experience is a plus but not a requirement.

If you're interested, DM me for details. The company is https://www.watchful.io/.

The digital rights groups in the UK are leading the way with their own organisational fediverse instances:

Bring back LAN Parties! Or in my case, computer clubs.

"Just a bunch of idiots having fun"—a photo history of the LAN party. https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2022/11/just-a-bunch-of-idiots-having-fun-a-photo-history-of-the-lan-party/

So after a little bit of digging, I discovered @chronos@masto.chronos-tachyon.net is the creator of the fediblock site, which, consequently, has been changed to rabidblock.

As I expressed previously, I did not trust the intention of someone that did not try to work with the creators of the tag to create a viable project.

After engaging with him, I can firmly say I do not support that project.

You cannot make a community tool by talking over the same community you allegedly want to 'protect' and then leverage your poor mental health to disparage and insult one who brings up that fact.

Be very cautious engaging with anyone from that project because they are not acting in good faith.

Trent Reznor to quit Twitter because it’s become “such a toxic environment”
“We don’t need the arrogance of the billionaire class to feel like they can just come in and solve everything”

Someone asked us to look at a new(?) bank that has apparently been advertising in #Australia lately, namely macquarie.com.au.

We couldn't access the site because it not only blocks #TorBrowser but it also goes through #AkamaiGhost servers.

It looks like just another bank that pretends to care about your privacy while going through US-owned servers.

Stick to real #banking and real money — #bitcoin or monero.

Yeah, I know Word Cup and everything. But let's take a moment to appreciate Sebastian Vettel's retirement from F1. Today was his last race. The man is four times World Champion and a pure legend.

Holy fucking shit I did it!

I present: Firefox 3.5.9 running on HP-UX 11.11 on PA-RISC. Took some manual editing of config files to get DNS to resolve, but here we are!

@zleap Ha! i am gonna use this next time.

I’ve not been on Mastodon long, but I am sold. Such a different vibe from other social media, especially the algorithm-led, users-as-data-points model.

I’ve had some really nice conversations with perfect strangers on here, probably more than my years on other sites/apps combined.

I’d go so far as to say, this isn’t social media—this is sociable media.
