Despite tens of thousands of layoffs in big tech, unemployment in tech is under 2%. If you’re in an IT, engineering, or software development roles then your chances of finding a job haven’t changed.
What’s changed is who’s hiring. While big tech has been scaling back, anecdotally it seems to have been business as usual in mid-tier software companies and startups. https://techcrunch.com/2023/08/15/tech-jobs-market-h1-2023/?trk=storyline-feed_main-feed-storyline-activity-card_feed-article-content
🇨🇦 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 Hello Canadians looking for Canadian news (especially if you’ve been dependent on Facebook or Instagram links).
CBC has created an index of Canadian news media which is searchable by location. It brings up an interesting pot-pourri of digital, tv and radio sources although you can search for just one. There’s a French version as well.
I’ve already discovered some new (to me) small newspapers from nearby regions 😃

Once upon a time, there was a community called Little Details on LiveJournal. It was a place where fiction writers of all kinds could ask for help with their fact-checking and research. It was a huge, amazing resource before the collapse of LiveJournal took it down.
I recently decided to try resurrecting it on Dreamwidth. It's now open and ready for questions. Come check it out, and boost if you're so inclined!
