@trnelson
SNARK+SARCASM ๐ฅ Passionate about ๐ป building software and ๐ empowering devs. Lead, IT Architecture @Ciena. More at Tweets are mine I wrote them.
@tdesseyn Depends on the company. We hired this candidate and this was a screenshot from our Zoom interview. ๐ (face and name blacked out for obvious reasons.)
His computer died before the interview and he had to join on his kidโs iPad. One of my favorite interview memories of all time.
@planningpoker hey, Iโm getting mass email from your system out of nowhere. Did you get hacked?
Getting pw reset emails every few seconds for a ton of users, none of which are me.
@donaldklee As someone who has known several and who has also hired one, I mostly agree. I donโt think they all are (some are legitimately credentialed and trying to do good work) but youโre mostly right.
I spend tons of time learning topics like critical thinking, logic/reason, skepticism, science, evolution, and physics. Most people I work or spend time with are educated, reasonable, and progressive.
So when I encounter someone who is anti-science or anti-LGBTQ it baffles me.
@gabriel__xyz If you want something free (almost) check out Mauticโthe open source version. Just need to host it somewhere and you can connect it to an AWS SES instance for sending mail cheap.
There may be better options but I used it for years and quite liked it.
