tau day (observed)

While pondering a particular piece of lore, I stumbled onto a rule zero of sorts for my TTRPG, the "trusted around sharp objects"-rule:

In order for the PC to get to the position they are in, someone must have looked at them and thought "yeah, we can trust this person with a knife". That doesn't mean they can't be unhinged in any number of ways, but indiscriminate stabbyness isn't one of them.

For the love of fuck please please stop hosting wikis on fandom.com I'm begging that site is so unusable.

As part of a wave of layoffs, I got laid off from my backend development job last month as the company's financials I was working with have been steadily decreasing. I applied for another job shortly after, and after a month of interviews and an honestly great response from their team, at the last minute, they told me that they were focusing their hiring efforts away from the US and towards Singapore. With Calckey donations, I don't have enough money to pay for rent or groceries. So I'm asking to #GetFediHired, I'm the lead developer on the Calckey project, and I'm a fullstack, multi-language developer. I have 3+ years of enterprise experience, and I work great on teams as well as solo. Resume and references available upon request.

I'm still looking for a job. Anybody need a programmer in the San Francisco Bay area? I'm a python programmer with experience in C/C++/Java/JS, I've done a bunch of CI/CD/SRE in the recent years, lots of tooling and back end web dev, and I've got a good deal of amateur experience doing reverse engineering and embedded development.
(I've done devops work but I'm trying to move away from that because too often it turns into just "ops", and I am a programmer.)
