In the late 90s and early 00s, russia has threatened my country with a military intervention in case we continue our negotiations to join and .

I had nightmares about what is currently happening in , happening in my country. I was afraid, we were afraid. We no longer are.

I think I've just bombed an interview where I've been expected to produce a data model for a famous toy problem and 3LoC / minute.

I have some options lined up, but I would like to get more into the pipeline. Can hashtag help me find a engineer position? 👀

P.S.
I can't reasonably toot it without plugging .io for technical skill assessment. It's like in a different universe from normal hiring practices in IT.

Arie van Deursen 🟥  

RIP Gert Florijn (1960-2025), bridge builder between industry and academia in software engineering, and a friendly, wise, yet stern advisor to government and industry.

Together with Eelco Visser he was the initiator and industrial co-funder of the PhD project in which Eelco Dolstra developed the now widely used #Nix and @nixos_org -- a level of impact few of us have achieved.

In 2023 he joined #AcICT: It was a privilege to work with him.

I have tentatively retooted this, but two notes — you always have the power not to comply. Fucking resign, you're a privileged software person, you WILL find a job.

And, most importantly, this toot should be continued as follows: if you comply, you are complicit.

If you work with a database and are asked to alter the table structure to comply in advance for citizenship or gender categorizations it's really important to NOT do it.

"The governor is concerned about all this stuff they want us to update our record keeping so we store both gender AND biological sex."

"We need fields to store the country of origin of people's parents."

If you don't have the power to rebuff this yourself, ask for help. At minimum ask for help online anonymously.

I remember times when I legit couldn't write a bfs in , but I don't remember why.

```
pub fn bfs(&self, i: usize) -> Result<Vec<usize>> {
if self.adj[i].0.is_none() {
anyhow::bail!(format!("Tried to start bfs from {} but there is no vertex there.", &i));
}
let mut queue = VecDeque::new();
queue.push_back(i);
let mut result = vec![];
let mut visited = vec![false; self.adj.len()];
while let Some(v) = queue.pop_front() {
if visited[v] {
continue;
}
for (x, _) in &self.adj[v].1 {
queue.push_back(*x);
}
result.push(v);
visited[v] = true;
}
Ok(result.clone())
}
```

periodic reminder for infosec folks: stop deciding things are done badly or "insecure" outside of the context of a threat model

it's disingenuous and irresponsibly ignores that security and cryptography are fundamentally about balancing risk tolerance and risk abatement

This 22-minute short film was made by the US Army just after the Second World War, warning about the tactics that Nazis use to gain power.

It's baffling how many parallels there are with current political developments. I think this video should be shown in every school around the world.

I remember tech lefties crying when I called people who stayed in facebook post-Cambridge-analytica complicit in installing fascism and hoped that they will rot in prison with zuck. I said the same thing when musk bought twitter about twitter employees who clearly can get any fucking engineering job they want because of having it on their CV.

So these lefties I want to teach a beautiful Ukrainian phrase – "shcho z yebalom?", which roughly translates as "what's with your face?".

Shcho z yebalom?

To everyone in #Europe, #Deutschland, #Canada, #Brasil, #Japan, #Korea, and the rest of the world, don't just sit there giving your condolences to us. You have to let the people around you know what is happening here in the #US, you have to show them the video of #ElonMusk doing the #Nazi salute, you have to bear witness, let the people around you know, and get ready to stop them before they take your country too, urge them to leave Twitter, or at least crosspost to here, urge your politicians to ban Twitter, because if it can happen here, it can happen where you are too.

This is not politics, this is not a meme, and this is not a drill: this is your country. The Fascists they are on the move.

As a European listening to Americans casually throwing out: “Yeah, I might just vote for Trump since I don’t know if I love Kamala’s face.” Sounds like: “Yeah, I might just vote for Hitler for the lolz”

This election scares the shit out of me.

Nazi fuck. Not only will I not buy a Tesla, I’ll never ride in one again. Not even if it’s -30 out with 4 feet of snow and it’s uphill both ways. I’m walking.

Hitler loving POFS. Anyone still on X is a Nazi sympathizer.
