Anyone hiring a frontend developer in Canada? Circumstances have led me to start looking for my next job sooner than I would have liked.

I excel at working on design systems, cultivating a frontend culture, building with the grain of the web, and creating inclusive user experiences. Reach out if you need help with any of these!

I have deep knowledge of the web fundamentals (HTML/ARIA, CSS, JS) and the frontend ecosystem at large (build tools, frameworks, design tools).

"Let me get this straight. Your lab has bred a dragon?"

"A wyvern, director. It has two legs, two wings, whereas a-"

"Which flies, breathes fire, and is intelligent?"

"About as intelligent as a border collie."

"So, intelligent. Why?"

"You asked us to invent measures to take down small drones."

As president, I will pass a law limiting ammo cartridges to no more than five bullets, and also they will need to be labeled with a dark cyan "ä" symbol. But I'd like to talk about my main economic proposal, getting the US back on the gem standard...

Hi Fedi friends! I’m having a bit of a philosophical difference of opinion with my current employer (both technical and ethical) I am seeking a new role and would appreciate your support. If you hear of any opportunities or just want to catch up, please send me a message or comment in thread. I’d love to connect.

About me & what I’m looking for:

💼 I’m looking for System Administrator, Information Technology, or Solutions Engineer roles. I would be open to pivoting to Information Security roles.

🌎 I’m open to roles in Iowa, Wisconsin, remote or hybrid.

⭐ I’ve previously worked at The University of Iowa Health Care, Grinnell College. I have extensive experience with Apple platform administration and integration of Apple devices and services in heterogeneous environments.

It was supposed to be just a sketch, an exploration of the idea of Gwen in full furry form. I got hooked and did this. Plain colors and some lighting but despite the lack of shadows, she has weight and presence.
Lovely.

I went to pottery class today and opened by asking several of my classmates if they knew how to use the slab roller upstairs. Nobody did but everyone wanted to, so when the teacher got in I’m like “hey teach, do you know how to use the slab roller upstairs” and she’s like “no” (she’s a visiting artist who only got here a couple months ago so this is not very surprising) “but I’ve used a lot of different ones and I bet we can figure it out.” Me: “do you want to go on a Journey of Discovery?” Everyone: yes. YES. *cue sickos faces* so we all thunder up the stairs periodically shouting JOURNEY OF DISCOVERY and our teacher snags another person who uses the slab roller A Lot and this person gives us a very thorough lesson and demonstration and every so often someone else wanders through and asks what’s happening and we all go JOURNEY OF DISCOVERY at them and now everyone knows how to use the slab roller and honestly I cannot recommend this approach enough as a way to make learning new skills and life generally more exciting.

An offer to anyone in the #Toronto area:

The Revue Cinema on Roncesvalles hosts a monthly program, Dumpster Raccoon, featuring a (totally not-at-all trash) movie with a cool host and an awesome crowd.

The next showing is The People's Joker this Saturday night... which I can no longer attend.

So... who wants a pair of tickets? (With a nod to @gnomon who gave them to me in the first place—dang it, and thanks again!)
