I'm bombarded with news everywhere I go already, I don't need my queer tech club to be inundated with disasters too.
These news bots on the Federated timeline are so annoying. I have to block a new one every time I open this app
I don't know who you are, but if you're reading this you should stop reading Hacker News.
The worst thing is when non-tech people are like "this task is easy, it's just adding a few fields. shouldn't take you more than an hour".
Why don't you do it then?
My account was marked as a bot account this whole time for some reason. I swear I'm good with computers

it’s a beautiful day to give trans people money
now = for at least 5 years, but you get the point
I love that we're using C bindings in javascript to compile CSS now
Ruby is weird
One thing that annoys me about Mastodon's default UI is that it has a horizontal scrollbar on 1080p 16:9. The leftmost bar isn't very useful and there's lots of wasted space there, to add insult to injury.
Wrote a piece on my new project, #Manipulation https://leite.dev/posts/manipulation-app/
I think I forgot to mention that the other interview also went incredibly well, and I'm waiting for the decision. Hopefully they'll hire me!
Today I interviewed with what might be my dream job and it went incredibly well. I have another one tomorrow, and I hope it goes just as smooth.

A reminder to all creative people:
If the RIAA's recent actions have reminded us of anything, it's that you cannot guarantee you have a copy of any of your work unless you have backups of it on your own system.
The 'cloud' is someone else's computer, and there is ample evidence that the someone else who owns that computer does not care at all about the hours of passion you've poured into things you make.
Act accordingly.

Crowdfunding: my Black autistic friend needs money for food and rent; goal = $600; paypal or cashapp
My friend MJ, who is Black and autistic, needs $400 for rent and $200 for food and transportation, or about $600 in all.
So far at $20/$600
Also, today is their birthday, so it would be nice if people donated for that?

The daily worry over never being able to land a job somewhere I would actually like to work is settling in. Sandwich time
Just applied for a web development position at Valve. Working there would be a literal dream come true, and I want this to happen more than anything else at the moment. Imagine working alongside the people who do cool shit like the Steam In-Home Streaming or the Steam Controller....... Wow

Ooh, filtering "@twitter.com" seems to hide all of those annoying quote tweets.
