As we are a #FOSS community, I thought it would be a good idea to ask: Who is #hiring?

Looking for a new challenge.

I am really good at:

- #infosec marketing
- #technicalwriting
- #marketing
- #infosec
- #scripting (#python)

Hoping to bypass the HR filter. If you are #recruiting at a humane company that respects & values employees, please reach out!

Any suggestions/feedback to improve it? Trying to write concisely for new users.

From leaked #Facebook internal documents:

- It has no idea how much data it ultimately collects on its users
- Cannot control where all that data goes internally
- Ultimately does not know what happens with it

The most daunting thing for me about joining Mastodon/Fediverse was picking an instance.

Having joined one, a RL metaphor emerges for me: "it's like picking an apartment building."

You need to evaluate the management. Do they respect tenant rights? Is the desk clerk skeevy?

Do you want to live in a big impersonal complex? Or a little boarding house, where people share a lot and have house parties? You can even be a "home owner" and run your own instance (pay the bills, fix the plumbing).

This is a cooperative that any cooperative and person in the world with an email can join.

The presentation is quite detailed but the first 5 slides should be enough to get the basic idea.

This is great: "stable" coin project relies on community governance, so a hacker borrows $1b, uses it to get a 67% voting stake, votes that the project should wire them $182m, then pays back the huge loan and exits -- all in the space of 13 seconds. The "stable" coin immediately crashes.
