Hello toot friends, I bring #antiLawn memes.
I'm hoping to radicalise you all against the boring monoculture lawn and turn you into biodiversity defenders.

Waiting for my train and just appreciating the infrastructure.
Only two car lanes. Two bike lanes, partially raised. Tram and bus stations next to the train station. Bike parking. Safety island for crossing. Departing trams have straighter path than arriving ones because they speed up. Covered bus stops with the realtime schedule.

#Security: we make sure we won’t pass your data to anyone who hasn’t paid us for it

#Privacy: we won’t manipulate you or interfere with your life

#DataProtection: fairness, lawfulness, transparency, minimisation, adequacy, storage limitation, security, accountability

Security without privacy and data protection; is just another vehicle for imposing tyranny

So I'm looking for a job again...
As a software engineer with 15 years of experience, some of it as a sole architect, some of it leading a team, working mostly on medium-scale systems with complex backends (having worked in e-commerce, utilities, banking/payments, etc). Plus a formal education in theoretical mathematics.
Primary experience is with C#/.NET and also TS/Node.js (can also do React).
But also want to try Rust or FP languages (such as elixir), and open to any stack basically (I can learn fast!) and any industry (besides cryptocurrencies or law enforcement or shit like that of course).
Been both commended and criticized for meticulous code review, setting a high bar of code quality, focusing on other developers experience, and not letting at least some of the bugs and vulnerabilities creep by.
Some of my code and projects are at https://oomza.cutegay.software/inga-lovinde ; another example is https://oomza.cutegay.software/blahaj-in-the-middle/architecture/src/branch/main/docs

I only speak English (but trying to learn German and Spanish).
And the employer needs to be in EU (preferably in Berlin, or it will have to be up to 100% remote depending on the distance to Berlin); I have an unrestricted work permit in Germany.
Hoping for an inclusive and diverse place (I would add a pleading emoji here but it will probably be misinterpreted by a target audience ).

using nix-shell is sooo nice for projects (it even works on non-NixOS, you just need Nix installed)

a good definition of "here are all the tools/dependencies you need to run/test this project"

here's the shell.nix for #pixie pages, even providing a custom not-yet-packaged build of Pebble, the ACME test server

Knowing you have a package coming in:

Isn´t it cool that women and trans people are having their rights questioned/taken away? And nothing much seems to happen to counter that so far.

Every day I become a little bit more left and a little bit more radical.

Weird to think that only like 2 years ago I was one of those bench sitting lefties who thought that even talking about politics online was a bad thing.

And it is an issue for everyone. I believe that these things have the potential to cross borders easily

Trans men, trans boys, and non-binary people are also impacted by abortion laws.

It's good to remember them when talking about abortion access.

Like, I get that it's easier to just say women or women and girls, but trans men/boys and non-binary people will still be facing the same deadly risk, and are already pretty invisible in all of this.

Visibility is important and saves lives.
