@ronanmcd @vfrmedia My local #ReformUK #councils in #Northamptonshire have just deprived a #charity working for #Deaf people in the #county, that had existed for 150 years, of all #funding, resulting in its #closure, with loss of all staff #jobs & #services, regardless of all appeals, both from the charity itself & local deaf people. See: https://bylinetimes.com/2026/03/26/deaf-residents-in-reform-councils-say-they-have-been-shut-out-as-party-replaces-collapsed-deaf-charity-with-just-22000-in-funding/.

What job do you think might need all those skills? What are the contractual terms? And what is the rate of pay?
Please reply with your guesses ...
So it's not about cars or EVs or jobs.
It's just plain old stupid racism, Doug.

Over the last few months I have been setting up my online business presence and I now have a website that I'm reasonably happy with (Wordpress as I got fed up with fighting with raw CSS) so if you know of anyone who needs UK based remote Linux sysadmin support, or help with setting up web, email, chat or fediverse servers, feel free to point them at https://moortech.uk to get in touch. Thanks! #jobs #getfedihired #fedihireuk

Edit! A lot of people engaged with this and it's clear many are in the same/similar positions. I therefore thought it might be useful for me to share that Open University offer quite a few free online certified training courses - www.open.edu/openlearn/free-courses
There is also a wealth of (free) training material (for learners and teachers) available from MIT at ocw.mit.edu and (free) certified online courses at openlearning.mit.edu/courses-programs/mitx-courses
Everything from HR and management to neurodivergence, aerodynamics and astrophysics, Python, genetics, diversity and inclusion, infosec, STEM, law, Black-centric courses, research methods, languages and education, Scottish Parliament, etc. 😊
If, like me, you've been actively seeking a job recently, you will likely be aware of the impact Ai has had on the job market. Virtually every other day is a msm news story about qualified and/or experienced people making hundreds of applications without getting anywhere.
Personally, although I've had a few interviews that didn't quite land (one I didn't really have enough experience, the others were pulled or lost funding), I've now applied for over 300 jobs over the past year. At this stage I'm quite philosophical about it and recognise it's not a reflection of my value.
Along with all the other current crises, there is now a looming employment and skills crisis. This is being framed as a benefits culture led by overdiagnosis of neurodivergence. Which makes me so very very cross it's difficult to put into words. I know that's not true. You know that's not true. *They* know that's not true. It's just a convenient demographic to throw under the bus to detract from the catastrophic damage being wrought by this new gold rush.
Urgh.
I've started typing this out a few times recently and always deleted. It's not something I feel very comfortable talking about. But I am really struggling with this and I figure that if I am there might be others. And I believe in visibility and not suffering in silence - been there and it was awful.
I know things will change at some point. And I know I've spoken to some of you separately irl about this (and thank you so much for your support), but just wanted to fire a beam out across Fedi to anyone else in this shitty situation. You are not alone. Always happy to chat offline if this is kicking your ass as much as it is mine! X

We have another design team opening at Tavus for a Brand & Product Designer! If this strikes a chord, DM here or electronically mail me with a resume/website/portfolio/whatever you have (sam at tavus dot io)
My partner is looking for work. I'd appreciate boosts.
He's looking to move into #appsec, but will accept short #webdev or #devops contracts (<12 months).
He's a senior full stack web dev (Linux/python/django/js/elm, ~12 years).
Experienced in dev ops, dev sec ops and automation (ansible, selenium, etc etc).
He has experience with OWASP ZAP, bandit and Snyk, and is part way through the PortSwigger academy.
FOSS contributions include writing a django authentication function for OWASP ZAP, making a wrapper to improve accessibility and usability for selenium (Elemental), and other bits and bobs.
He isn't on any socials, but if you want to get in touch I can share his email or signal ID (or give him yours).
He and I have been the security people for little apps without any dedicated security team, for the last decade or so. If you're in security you might have met him (or me) at conferences (Disobey, BSides, CCC, Defcon and Ruxmon), because we've been attending since we launched our own app in 2014, picking up everything we can to protect our users.
(Yep, he is aware a move to security from senior dev roles will be a step down in seniority and $. He just really likes security.)
Yeesh, this really sucks
