How fast was this duck going

I am a rather experienced software engineer who could use some means of actually supporting myself in the long term. Self-directed open source development and sporadic game development/music composition aren’t cutting it.

My resume is at https://beesbuzz.biz/resume and I mostly enjoy working on the service/backend side of interactive/social media stuff. I am not willing to relocate from Seattle at this time, but I would be absolutely fine with working remotely.

addition to the "computers are just magic rocks we tricked into thinking" thing; circuit board layouts are really just weird sigils aren't they?

IT'S A PLANT OF BAPPERS

The lazy, white supremacist trope in fantasy writing where nonhuman races represent nonwhite humans has a name now: Tolkien Minorities.

That is all.

Human beings shouldn't be valued based on beauty. We shouldn't place any value in beauty.

Human beings shouldn't be valued based on intelligence. We shouldn't place any value in intelligence.

Human beings shouldn't be valued based on hard work and productivity. We shouldn't place any value in hard work and productivity.

Value is a capitalist concept. Let's not value anything. Let's just be ugly, stupid, and lazy.

So, my wife and I have conjured a way out of the Ship of Theseus Paradox.

Replace every part as they wear with Performance parts.

The Speedboat of Theseus solution.

software engineering is a social science. you're not solving computer problems, you're using computers to solve people problems. that's why it's so important to design accordingly

Look, the only time travel metric for how far back or forward you've gone is one that is relative to the time/date/year you left.
BC/AD is not universal, and any attempt to set a universal measure would have to agree on a starting point.
This way, you could travel and know it's T minus 1200, or T plus 100. A fellow traveler might describe themselves in your time as T-50, for which you flip the sign and know for certain it's T+50 to you.
None of this Gregorian calendar nonsense. :-)

"The world's unfair, kiddo" is not an argument for "then allow unfairness", but instead is an argument for "Then make the world *FAIR*"
