I'm anti-war because the more I learn about history, the more it's clear that wars have a legacy that extends for decades or centuries beyond when they officially end. And I don't mean only the lives lost. The propaganda drives people insane and clouds their vision for decades. All of the things people "had" to do to "win" end up bringing about unintended and unanticipated consequences that never really disappear from society. The madness incites more madness.

I was talking to some folks who had to talk me off the idea of a hiring blacklist. It's not like there's been a complete wall: warm referrals still make it. But cold applications? I might as well have a name on some nginx bad bot list with the turn around time for rejections. And I wasn't the only one (similarly aged folks with more contracting backgrounds, different ethnic and national backgrounds) feeling it. It doesn't shake off the sharpness of the lack of income nor the numbness of feeling more than incapable of taking care of oneself. Like I'm more scared than I expected of catching COVID or having some life event that I can't even begin to afford. If employment is so tied to one's ability to take care of themselves, how are we not all living in a feudal state? The social net is of different sizes - if it exists where you live - Florida's unemployment services (aka reemployment support, their words) do more to drill and shame than to support and direct.

Oh this is why people were talking about morality and tech, lol https://www.theregister.com/2023/12/08/hashicorp_openbao_fork/ Tbh lol, y'all might not like this, but it doesn't fucking matter. If the fork's not community-run, it's nothing more than a "revenue measuring" contest between two tech CEOs over adoption (because big adopters acquire a lot and accelerate adoption - look at the virus of VS Code despite the vacuum of desktop alternatives people don't have to mention in their dotfiles). The Linux Foundation has (more or less) transformed into the perfect example of Commercial Open Source (open for you, plenty of funds for me but not non-corporate maintainers hahaha sike) extension of Microsoft (personal viewpoint) so even them taking in Terraform will be icky. But then again, it's not like we got coops fabricating chips so it's the best we fucking got.

After this codeforward conference and govai which was running at the same time, I got a better sense of the wild amount of fomo and hype and llms being pushed on teams without having real agency, and I get the anti-llms reaction by developers a bit more. Also realized, through my new found lenses, how political software development is in companies (which I traumatizingly didnāt realize before), and damn am I glad to not be in this rat race. #llms 1/

Okay assessment done I am fucking EXHAUSTED!!!! He says I get no autism points for my emotive facial expressions and gesticulation (Iām the human emoji after all) but whilst not giving me a definitive diagnosis and I have to wait a week he says there are several areas that speak to an ADS diagnosis Probably the fact I spent the entire two and a half hours staring outside the window whilst waxing lyrical about āI donāt knowā or when asked to define specific emotions or āhappiness is a lack of sadness I guess?ā and āno I find most people irritatingā and āI donāt really feel anything at allā when asked to talk about family stuff And Iām going to send him my report from my private assessor :) So fingers crossed I get declared autism Started to shut down at the end so glad thatās over
