I'm a #childfree software developer who enjoys all kinds of #outdoors activities.
#mountainbiking #climbing #hiking #kayaking #yoga #cycling #motorcycles #motorcycling
I love combining hobbies! Ex: Ride a motorcycle somewhere, climb to the top of some thing and do some sun salutations...
I'm also on #mountainproject and other things.
@jond Yeah! That's so fun.
You get to be outside in the elements the whole time :)
@rhythial Hey! On what kind of software are you working?
@0x11de784a Mostly release engineering tools right now. I used to work on high availability cluster software.
Sadly, I've no Ruby/Rails experience, or I might contribute some to #mastodon ... Heh.
@rhythial Interesting! So engineering tools like CAD and such?
Yeah, same. But there are many ways to contribute. In the last days I've done some community work, like answering question from new users. A lot of new folks here in the last days :)
@0x11de784a Tools that stream delivery of software. I kind of work on magical glue software that ties a bunch of different tools used by my company together.
It's good that there are lots of new people, but the explosive growth is going to test the scalability - which isn't a bad thing :D
@rhythial Oh release engineering not just engineering, alright, misread that :D
I don't know if the official devs would say that scalability is tested already, but it's working quite well with over 1 million users. The one site I used for those numbers is down, but here are some more detailed numbers too if you're interested: https://mnm.social/
@rhythial That's one of my favorite things, especially in the spring or fall. Take the motorcycle out through the country when it's early and cool, ride up some Forest Service road to a ridge as the temperature climbs, throw the suit and boots in the hard case and go hiking in the mid-day sun, etc.
