I'm keenly interested in finding new remote work.
I have entry-level skills in like, writing documentation, HTML/CSS, and a little python/javascript/etc. I'm more experienced with tech operations and I'm most experienced doing project coordination - my best job was with Sedazad, an NGO that looks into how countries control their Internet.
I don't have a resume atm because this is unexpected, but if you know anyone looking for a nerd, please pass this on. https://emsenn.net
Aww I just realized using Gitlab Pages I won't have any idea how many visitors different pages get. (I've never been big into analytics/tracking but I was always curious to see in the logs if some page got looked at a lot)
or, as some would have it:
sad: FOSS
rad: PhOSS
or
bop: FOSS
stop: PhOSS
(are you sure you didn't get those in the wrong order, @sireebob?)
tired: FOSS
inspired: PhOSS
Link me to your absolute favourite README
(Or top few favorite, I want lots of asnwers.)
(I appreciate the boosts but I only got 1 answer so far and it wasn't really appropriate, since man pages aren't READMEs)

nope now there's an emoji instead only on the fediverse would that comment chain not happen instantaneously.
For the first time, I am disappoint, y'all. I am disappoint.
quick someone go toot "i don't know": https://mastodon.social/@Gargron/100294210141168188
I've been talking about my journey to build myself a small business infrastructure using entirely FOSS and wit, with my coworkers, and I can tell at points they're annoyed at how much better certain things work, and are sure to point out when things are slightly uglier than they'd like.
Favorite this toot if you're the person in your place of work who is always sharing headlines from the HN Frontpage into the #general channel.
@downey meant to say "RaaS provider" ahh well I got excited.
A concrete example would be a web development firm that makes bespoke static sites for customers. Rather than pay Gitlab for time on their shared runners where you need to install the proper image, pay a RaaS (thanks @downey) that has a runner going just for jekyll sites, so the firm isn't using up as much resource for no reason each build/deploy.
I mean, beyond the market value, I see this as potentially energy-saving?
So I don't really get Gitlab and Gitlab.com that well yet but I haven't noticed, and am surprised I have not yet noticed, a service which sells access to specialized runners for testing/deploying certain kinds of projects, as the shared runners require loading quite a bit of software each time which makes the process more costly. (Obvs talking for commercial use here.)
It could just be that the market there isn't at the scale for what i'm discussing to be profitable enough, of course
Bookmarklets are underused IMO, or at least, I under-utilize them for sure.
literally trying to set up mailing lists in my CRM for this sort of thing and it's just like "you wanna do what now? surely you mean you want to email all these people all the same content, right, not that you want to mail out updates just about project N to peopel who subscribed to hear about project N?"
everyone ever: sign up for this mailing list to receive updates about our product
everyone: we don't mean like, updates about outages or deprecating features, but just like, updates about new ways we want your headspace, time, and/or money.
Man I know I've built sites with mkdocs locally on my chromebook but i can't remember or figure out how and i cna't tell if that's because i can't figure it out or because it was a different chromebook and i haven't installed the right stuff
Canadian accents wouldn't bug me if they just wrote it as "sorey" instead of pretending it's "sorry"
I really appreciate that whenever I ask a question of my followers, it either goes ignored or answered - no one has ever said "search online". I think we all recognize that's what I'm doing, I'm just choosing to search through my personal connections.
