Who called it linear typing and not “once in a lifetime”

Who called it const and not “same as it ever was”

Who called it a stack trace and not “well, how did I get here?”

"If the authors of computer programming books wrote arithmetic textbooks..."

A colleague used this image to describe the documentation of a library. Meaning that the documentation was the example with the rabbits, but they have to use the library as the second part of the image.

A recruiter approached me about a #programming position. Backend developer. Senior level, with good pay.

I've been out of the job market for a while, but I told them I'd be willing to consider it, because it looks like it might be palatable for me, with all the flexibility they offer, and the mention of pair programming.

I have received great marks on my code quality from every employer I've had. The problem was always that my performance would decline over time. The longer you work somewhere, the less attention people pay to you. And I like attention. I need a buddy when I work. That's why I have a gym buddy and help at home for the housework.

Norway has very low unemployment at the moment, and companies are using a lot of energy to recruit people. And I'm not desperate to get hired immediately. So that's why I say "I'm willing to consider it" and not "Hurray, a job opportunity!".

So ...let's face it. A LOT of folks in tech circles are somewhat amazed a fully #blind person can even find the power button on a computer, let alone operate it professionally. I am such a person, and I'd like to bust that myth.
It's also true that many #hacking tools, platforms, courses etc. could use some help in the #accessibility department. It's a neverending vicious circle.
Enter my new twitch channel, IC_null. On this channel, I will be streaming #programming and #hacking content including THM, HTB and who knows what else, from the perspective of a #screenReader user.
What I need, is an audience. If this is something you reckon you or anybody you know might be interested in, drop the channel a follow or share this post. Gimme that #infoSec Mastodon sense of comradery and help me out to make this idea an actual thing :) https://twitch.tv/ic_null #tryHackMe #streamer #selfPromo
