no way I'm going to give that character my content or
collaborate in anything he owns or has a stake in.
Still looking for an alternative.

And please don't even think of approaching me to get your stuff posted or upvoted, if you want something posted do it yourself, if you want stuff to be upvoted post interesting stuff!
If you comment and I'm not responding to you it may well be that you are filtered out from my view.
Having said thus much by way of introduction, I commit the following to the candour of the Publick.

Both contract and full time considered, but my current preference over the summer would be contract or contract-to-hire. Part-time/retainer devops work would be perfect.

E-mail: vidar@hokstad.com (job opportunities, contracts, questions about my comments or projects are all good, but please be to the point and I can be slow to reply to unsolicited e-mail)
Interests: Everything GNU/Linux related, Video Games, R, Python, Open Pandora & DragonBox Pyra, Raspberry Pi. Data analysis with R is for professional purposes while I also enjoy casual Python programming.
I started my computing life on the ORIC-1, followed by the C64 and of course, the beast that was the Amiga (best memories ever).
Co-organizer of Hacker News Kansai Meetups along with Sacha Greif ("Kansai" stands for West Japan, namely Kobe, Osaka, Kyoto). Currently events are on pause following the ongoing COVID19 waves across Japan.
I maintain a website with translations of pg's essays to polish language, http://esejepg.pl/.
I do software nowadays, but I'm constantly looking for opportunities to do something actually useful for humanity. If you know of some, please let me know - especially if they involve biotech, cleantech or NewSpace industry.
