#ScalaIO Hey, i'm looking for an experienced Scala dev with aspirations for mentoring, evolving practices, technical management of projects (derisked path from idea to poc/MVC/milestones, reassessment, etc)
We're rudder.io, a secops tool for checking and enforcing security configurations, patch, best practices on heterogenous IT infra.
It's a 15y old Scala project, maintained with love, now mostly zio based and on the verge to switch to Scala 3. We also do elm for front, and the system team does rust and f#.
Small team (6 for dev), extremely low turnover, floss good citizens, strong and sustainable growth.
French company based on Paris with up to 90% remote, looking for a French worker based on France. Come talk to me 👋
(NDR: hum, pas sûr de pourquoi j'ai ecrit ce post en anglais)

Mozilla Foundation lays off 30% of its employees, ends advocacy for open web, privacy, and more
More bad news from Mozilla.
The Mozilla Foundation, the nonprofit arm of the Firefox browser maker Mozilla, has laid off 30% of its employees as the organization says it faces a “relentless onslaught of change.”
[…]
Announcing the layoffs in an email to all employees on October 30, the Mozilla Foundation’s executive director Nabiha Syed confirmed that two of the foundation’s major divisions — advocacy and global programs — are “no longer a part of our structure.”
↫ Zack Whittaker at TechCrunch
This means Mozilla will no longer be advocating for an open web, privacy, and related ideals, which fits right in with the organisation’s steady decline into an ad-driven effort that also happens to be making a web browser used by, I’m sorry to say, effectively nobody. I just don’t know how many more signs people need to see before realising that the future of Firefox is very much at stake, and that we’re probably only a few years away from losing the only non-big tech browser out there. This should be a much bigger concern than it seems to be to especially the Linux and BSD world, who rely heavily on Firefox, without a valid alternative to shift to once the browser’s no longer compatible with the various open source requirements enforced by Linux distributions and the BSDs.
What this could also signal is that the sword of Damocles dangling above Mozilla’s head is about to come down, and that the people involved know more than we do. Google is effectively bankrolling Mozilla – for about 80% of its revenue – but that deal has come under increasing scrutiny from regulars, and Google itself, too, must be wondering why they’re wasting money supporting a browser nobody’s using.
We’re very close to a web ruled by Google and Apple. If that prospect doesn’t utterly terrify you, I honestly wonder what you’re doing here, reading this.

Good morning! #CatsOfMastodon #KatLand #Cats #BlackCat #Cat
He was sleeping and suddenly startled by a weird sound in the house, so in stead of a quitely sleeping cat picture, this is what I got.

Not only Nord Stream, but the infamous "Steinmeier's peace formula", and they seem to be willing to do that again!
"On 18 December 2007, Steinmeier and Dmitry Medvedev signed an agreement on behalf of BASF to exploit another gas field. At the time, 40 per cent of German demand was satisfied by Russian supply"
OMG, this too! He's practically one of the main architects of this whole clusterfuck — why is he even still in politics? 🤦
@kravietz @imsodin
> excuse could work for a single person
Reminds me of Soviet-era bureaucracy: pointless and inefficient — only achieving results in its own narrow field at best or having "cover your ass" approach in the worst case — with complete disregard for what it means in the big picture, which might be zero sum or even harmful. This is what happens when people get generously compensated just to "do their job" and bear no responsibility for their actions. This can't last forever.

Ha-ha-ha, yeah, it's a controversial to say the least: on the one hand less e-waste as you reuse already available hardware, on the other — greater power consumption in most cases. But I was always fairly certain that PowerPC MacMini shouldn't be that bad as it uses the same laptop components as PowerBooks of that era, even the same CPU — I mean it's definitely less efficient than modern laptops, but shouldn't be THAT bad.
@splitshockvirus
ip link is actually the most counter-intuitive — for almost every other ip subcommand "s" stands for "show", you can use "ip a s" — short for "ip address show", "ip r s" for "ip route show", but for "ip link show" the short is "ip l sh" because "s" stands for "set" 🤦
@munir
You should interact with Russians more — Germans would seem cheerful in comparison 😂
@gyptazy @santiago
Cheap enough TBH, I have this Mini running 24/7 — my Pleroma instance, print server and bittorrent seedbox are hosted on it.
I sometimes think of using this PowerMac G5 Dual I have collecting dust in the corner in its place. Do you have an idea how this machine fares compared to the Mini in terms of power consumption?

Well I guess now's the time: It's time for me to #getFediHired
I'm a software engineer with 29 years of experience. In more technologies than one person usually encounters. I've been working in Javascript and Typescript for a while, but don't let that fool you: I do rust for fun and I'm down in the guts of the runtime in C++ if I have to. I’m fixing include paths in C header files and managing deployments and doing system level tracing. I do embedded programming for fun, and I've picked at the system level APIs of everything from MacOS to Android. I can cleverly hack my way past problems, and isolate the resulting tech debt with a good explanation and the conditions under which it can be fixed.
I leave every codebase neater than I found it. I can manage awkward technology transitions, and I can bring a fair bit of open source know-how to bear on things.
I'm a team-oriented, consensus-focused person, but confident executing on my own and iterating from there. I will boldly start and show a prototype if that's what it takes. I'm not easily bored, so if it just needs a heavy lift, I'm here for that too.
I've worked in PHP, Python, Perl, Java, Javascript, Ruby, Lua, Rust, C, C++, Vala, Scheme, and a dozen more languages (and I'll learn any new one I need to) and have written truly unfortunate amounts of hardened, careful bash.
I've installed and built VoIP platforms with Asterisk integrations, I've built mail servers and custom authentication. I've built FUSE filesystems for fun, and I'm always after ways to make software simple, durable, and reliable.
Got a team that could use me? Hit me up. aredridel@dinhe.net. Resume and letters of recommendation available on request (you really don't have to take my word for what I'm capable of.)

I've spent the last weekend in company of a friend who then tested positive for COVID antibodies — it might be a leftover from prior illness as express-test was negative and he exhibits no other symptoms. I'm still feeling well myself, but I'm quite worried 😖

Place them as packs in individual directories under instance/static/emoji
I also have a weird shell script that generates a JSON file with a list of emojis in the pack, but I think it's no longer required, Plemomber just scans for all files in compatible image formats in all the subdirectories automatically.
@munir With OpenWRT you can have all the advanced routing/filtering you want, just forward the ports of your externally available IP-address to your server or just any machine on your network — much more secure this way and with powerful enough router gives you little to no overhead, at least this was never a problem for me and I'm using a setup like this for more than a decade.
@munir
That's not a problem even when using a router, my Pelorma instance is also a print server, a web server, and a torrent seedbox and that's a separate machine from the one that hosts my Gemini capsule, acts as a proxy and a VPN box — this doesn't prevent me from using an OpenWRT router, which provides the basic networking and acts as a wireless AP for phones and laptops.
