There are some really freaking cool people i'd never virtually meet had I not joined the fediverse.
Thank you all for being awesome. For every minor negative encounter I've had on here there have been literally hundreds of positive connections.
I'm still blown away that such a healthy social network exists.
well it's definitely not polished, but I'm pretty happy with how the story turned out!

Managed to work on three different projects at once this week: http://mindbat.com/2018/04/20/keeping-score-april-20-2018/

Fellow folks with anxiety/depression, have you ever found a job/career/employer with a manageable stress level? If so, what was it, and/or what did that job/employer do to make that a healthier environment?
Looking for recommendations, coping mechanisms, etc. Feel free to boost.
Whenever you see a fad/As Seen On TV item and catch yourself thinking "ugh, is that really necessary?", stop and think: for whom /might/ that be necessary?
Fidget spinners help satisfy the stimming urge for autistic people.
Slankets/snuggies are lifesavers for people in wheelchairs and on bed rest.
That pre-peeled orange in the plastic container? Imagine your arthritic grandma trying to peel an orange.
Most of that "unnecessary" stuff has a use case - it's just not /your/ use case.
DriveThru RPG is hiring a PHP back-end developer and a UI/UX developer:
I have a really good memory for customers. If there's a regular at my store, chances are I know them by sight and name. But I'm very quiet and don't often use names even for friends/family. I just talk in their direction.
But I noticed people assume I don't know them. Even if I see them every day. And then they feel like I don't care, I'm just the person between them and their meds.
So I started greeting everyone I know by name this week. And WOW. I did not realize how much that meant to people, but apparently it's a lot and it completely turns those interactions around.
And I feel really good about it. It's nice making people smile a little.
The Lisp Game Jam starts at the end of this week; are you in?
Dans LibreOffice, quand vous exportez un PDF, vous avez la possibilité d'inclure le document LibreOffice original DANS le PDF.
L'avantage ?
Tout le monde peut lire le document (c'est un PDF), mais vous pouvez aussi le ré-ouvrir dans LibreOffice pour l'éditer !
Pratique également pour archiver des documents à long terme: Pas besoin d'avoir 2 fichiers.
Lors de l'export PDF, cochez juste la case « PDF hybride (fichier ODF incorporé) »
So my takeaways in learning from failure.
If you do #personalops (one person sysadmin) do what I just did. Spend a couple weeks clearing up tech debt, then spend some time figuring out MTTR and what steps you need to take to recover.
WRITE THAT 💩 DOWN!
Then do it to make sure it works as you have it documented.
THen, take a break because the above is a mountain of work.
Come back a few days later and install monitoring.
WRITE THAT 💩 DOWN TOO!
Test your backups and MTTR again
Full-stack developer, been working with the web since the 90s. #HTML, #CSS, #Javascript, #Python, #PHP, enough #Ruby and #Node to get myself into trouble. #LAMP is fine but other stacks are fine too; I'm a quick learner.
Any position is okay; I've been out of the office for a while and I''d be happy doing just about anything as long as the income is stable.
Formal resume: https://github.com/joyeusenoelle/Resume
Please boost and share freely!
I should probably do a proper masto #introduction
I'm Vicky. I'm a librarian focusing on research reproducibility + research data management.
I gave an interview about me/my work recently: http://acrl.ala.org/dh/2018/04/04/repro/
I love FOSS, open access, open educational resources, open EVERYTHING
I hate the corporate capture of scholarship
I co-founded an open source, open access repo for LIS scholarship: lissarchive.org
I also love my super cute black cat Little Boss & my partner @remram44
Who on the fediverse actively plays minecraft? Let me know I want to follow people who are playing at the moment.
I'm playing on a private server w bf at the moment, but I just want to see what other people are doing :D
Thanks to some writing exercises (and some writer friends :), completely blew away my #writing goal this week: http://mindbat.com/2018/04/13/keeping-score-april-13-2018/
