Work from home
  • If you work in the US, NDAs tied to severance are generally illegal.

    Even so, I gave my last employer the benefit of silence for the amount of time my severance would have covered in regular salary. That time is now past.

  • What were some of your first technologies/tools?
  • Are you trying to engineer us socially?

    I'll bite anyway.

    1. Commodore PET 2001, the original
    2. Commodore's built-in screen editor
    3. Commodore BASIC
    4. I've read books on Lisp, but to say that I've learned it or written a program I would admit exists . . . the counter is still running. Hope springs eternal.
    5. Common Lisp, but I was reading about Lisp in BYTE magazine before CL existed, in the context of AI. I was also exposed to the work of Terry Winograd, particularly SHRDLU.
    6. vim, usually without remembering to turn on its fancy features, so it may as well be Bill Joy's vi.
    7. BASH
    8. I've been advised to learn Emacs and its Lisp along the way.

  • The 5a 5G, unless you're prepared to reflow the solder on the SoC. The 5a has had a high failure rate, including the one my household had. Google replaced ours with a 6a under extended warranty.

  • Well that didn't go as expected...
  • It runs about as well as it does under Windows. I'm not currently interested in paying another subscription - feels like too much pressure and the amount I spent on WoW over the years is distressing.

    I've been playing GW2 since December and it also runs well with Wine.
