Dan Jones 🥥🌴 (danjones000@microwords.goodevilgenius.org)'s status on Saturday, 22-Jun-2024 02:38:30 JST Dan Jones 🥥🌴 I need to vent a little bit.
I've been out of work for close to two months now. I know that many people have been looking for a lot longer than me. But, I had a really good prospect at a company that I respect, and felt that I was a great fit for what they were looking for.
After a bunch of interviews, all of which seemed very positive, I got word this morning that they wouldn't be making an offer.
This was so incredibly disheartening. I even have a friend who just started working there who was talking me up to them.
This is now the third time I've gotten far in the interview process, only for them not to make an offer.
I'm just feeling so frustrated now. The last time I lost a job (four and a half years ago) I had an offer at another company is less than two weeks.
Now, it's been nearly two months. I've sent out over 80 applications, gotten interviews at five or six companies, with three of them getting pretty far. But I can't get to the offer.
Anybody who I've ever worked with would tell you that I'm smart, talented, a hard worker, and a fast learner. But, none of that seems to be enough right now.
I've got an initial interview at another company on Tuesday. So I'm going to keep plugging away at this. But right now, man, I feel really demotivated.
In a couple months my severance is going to run out, and I have to have a new job before then.
If anybody knows any jobs for a senior PHP or golang developer, please let me know. This can't go on much longer.

Dan Jones 🥥🌴 (danjones000@microwords.goodevilgenius.org)'s status on Monday, 20-Feb-2023 01:25:43 JST Dan Jones 🥥🌴 I would like to see Mastodon get a little pressure to support more of the standard, and others to follow suit.
I was thinking the other day about building a Fediverse location-sharing app (like Foursquare).
The vocabulary is all there (Arrive activity at a Place object being the most basic), but would it gain any steam if Mastodon didn't know what do with those other activities?
People would want to be able to cross-post to Mastodon, but Mastodon would just ignore it all, as would most other AP apps.

Basically, the bullets for the li appear outside the left margin for the blockquote, even though they're inside it.
