I'm looking for a part-time #freelance gig in #SwiftUI. I've got many years of experience and love collaborating, but part-time roles are really hard to find. 😔
Could you please share this to boost my reach? Thanks a lot! 🙏✨
This is a retropost. Written contemporaneously in 2020, but published four years after the events. It's May 2020 as I write this. I'm typing to capture the moment. Right now, I've no idea what the impact is. This is the exact moment, on Thursday May 7th, I hit the Big Red Button - three of […]
@Edent At least in my bit in the world, this was incredibly valuable work. When the app became available to the general public in September, it had already been subject to detailed peer review. And that built trust, which was vital because one big hazard at that point was trust in government.
That peer review meant that techies like me could tell their mates that they didn't need to worry, that installing the app was both safe and helpful.
"A lot of companies are just big piles of possums running around and biting each other. Maybe they don't start out that way, but sooner or later they hire a biting possum, and the other possums bite back, and pretty soon whenever a new possum joins holy shit there are all these possums biting me."

I just heard the bad news that I am probably going to need a new job starting in July.
So, before beginning the regular search, I wanted to ask my Fedi friends if anyone could use a capable C++ programmer with lots of graphics and networking experience. I wouldn't mind a change, so I'm open to anything. Even other programming languages! It would be awesome if I could use Linux to do the work. 🐧
Locations I would consider are: Central Europe, Melbourne, Sydney or Remote
As many of you know, I have worked for @novalauncher for 8 1/2 years. When I was hired, I was done so as a contractor and remained a contractor the entire time. Then two years ago, Branch Metrics acquired Nova and while I made the transition over, I was still a contractor due to Branch not having things setup to hire full time employees in the state of North Carolina. So for the entirety of my Nova Launcher career, I've been a contractor. (cont...)
@cliffwade I’m fortunate enough to witness your humility and engagement on mastodon, and it makes me feel even better to know I’m supporting someone such as yourself.
I've worked for myself for so long, pricing #freelance jobs feels incredibly difficult.
I'm used to working slowly, taking my time, so charging by the hour doesn't feel right.
Any tips for figuring out what to charge an extended family member who's willing to pay a fair price? I've put together a game they designed, with some simple hand drawn illustrations. Prepared it as a digital file for online sale, with packaging graphics, barcode, web page on my store.
@ellane in the past for a situation like a friend or extended family member I’ve said “pay me what you feel it’s worth to you” knowing I might be donating my time. Almost always I’ve been surprised.
It's a moment of sweet triumph when you see your name acknowledged on an exhibition text panel. 💪🏻
Too often #conservators and technicians are dismissed as behind-the-scenes, invisible, and irrelevant people, but without us it would often just be a curator with a hammer and a bunch of stuff in boxes. Thank you for remembering us! Especially us #freelancers. 🙏🏻
