So since I'm on that freelance game again...

Any #fedihire interest for a generalist software artisan? I consider myself expert level in go, C, C#, POSIX shell, and web technologies (including Angular and React, both of which I hate viscerally but am very good at), and I'm a fast study both when it comes to new domains and new tools.

I'm pounding the pavement locally with some interesting leads but nothing concrete yet. In the meantime I'm writing a tiny devops toolkit called dollctl (https://forge.lightcrystal.systems/nilix/dollctl).

If you're interested you can find my CV here: https://nilfm.cc/cv ; If you like the software I write and have a few bucks to spare I accept donations on stripe: https://lightcrystal.systems/support

people becoming interested in decentralized autonomous governance but somehow missing 200 years of anarchist theory and arriving instead at fake computer money is galaxy level political illiteracy

ok, CICD module of dollctl is done, time to pivot to Sigil to build the UI for it :>

TIL there's a way to declaratively show/hide `<dialog>` elements in #html using the `commandFor` attribute on `<button>` elements.

ok the past few days i managed to code a CI/CD runner. making big progress now that i'm able to actually do this full time :>

created a mock-up of a visualizer/debugger/ide for the simplest muxn variant (muxn100: 512 bytes of memory, 16 byte stacks, console-only)

the goal would be to make simple #uxn puzzles/programs feel more like a zachtronics game

just taught an 8yo how to write a little webpage with h1, p and img tags :3

Hey everyone, I need some help to keep my head above water for Februrary. The job search has been rough, and while I’ve been pushing hard to get back on my feet, but I’m at a point where I need some help to get through this stretch.

I’ve set a goal of $1,400 on Ko-fi to cover my essential living costs. This includes my rent, utilities, and bills. Anything remaining will go toward food and basic necessities.

If you have the means to contribute or can give this a boost, it would mean a lot to me. Thank you for your help.

dollctl progress is good. service management is all implemented in both dollctl (server) and sigil (client), logs are persistent, and the sigil CSS is a little rough but slowly approaching something useable. next up is probably the CI/CD module so that i can automate service deployments

@sayyid_qishta Aye, chaotic good isn’t just something cute I say.

And a lot people need to be aired out for their bullshit.

A LOT A LOT.

dollctl service layer is built ^^

now i'm starting to build the frontend for dollctl, called sigil, which is just a web dashboard that interacts with dollctl across multiple hosts

i'm unofficially officially consulting/freelancing.

will put in my notice at work at some point this week but... i just can't keep doing it, working on and with systems i find repugnant, for shareholder profit...

so ya heard it here first - Iris Lightshard, LightCrystal Systems - open for business. I'm looking for all sorts of contract work, not just software but also UI/HCI, graphic design, network infra, IT org consulting, etc.

in the meantime while i look for paid work i'm primarily working on dollctl

this fall cannot front

#plan9 #9front #cirno #glenda #catv #unix_surrealism

drives me insane that suddenly everyone excited about cleaning up technical debt now that it'll help the AI write code better+faster. For some reason that's more interesting than helping ME write code better+faster.

Voila, these are the last 3 rabbits of the series :)...

Dev, Rek and Ninj rabbit.

Thanks for following along~ I will probably continue to draw/share more rabbits, casually, but wont share them on this thread since they're not part of the core "100 rabbits" :>.

edit: All the rabbits are here:

A reminder that if you're advocating for the use of LLMs, you're advocating funding a surveillance state. You pay for tokens, you evangelize the tools, the companies behind them make money, that money circulates until hits a project, contract, etc. that aids in the surveillance and oppression of others.

Do not participate in laundering ethics and morality.

Don't let people kick you down and say it was for good reasons.

all i wanna do today is keep building dollctl's supervision layer. instead i gotta hail corporate :<
