Are you trying to get #FediHired in #Infosec? Looking to pivot jobs? I'm excited to announce this event that I'll be hosting throughout the month of February. The 28-Day Get Hired Challenge!! Each day I'll pick one topic from #CybersecurityCareerGuide and I'll talk through it and drop it in a video on my YouTube channel. I hope you'll find it helpful or at least fun and interesting. Stay tuned.

Hey all, would appreciate a post boost on this one.
I, unfortunately, got laid off last week and am looking for a new job!
If you know of any going that fits my skillset of video content creation, educational CG writing, CG generalist then I'd love to hear about it! I'd love to stay working remotely, but I'm located in Scotland near Glasgow if there is anything around there too.

Yes #Jacaranda are still flowering albeit less bountiful in their current flowering cycle.
These were pictured from two trees in #CaulfieldSouth #Australia not 5 minutes ago in the late afternoon sunshine.

All those VCs talk about disruption.
Here's disruption for you:
100,000 tech workers considering their next options.

Krishna Shenoy (@shenoystanford) has passed -- he was a model scientist, teacher, colleague, and friend who will be missed dearly at #Stanford and beyond. He accomplished more during his short time than most could over several lives...here is just a taste of his amazing contribution to neural prosthetics:

"The importance of stupidity in scientific research"
I just rediscovered this classic paper. Highly recommended, particularly for #PhD students!
"Science makes me feel stupid too. It’s just that I’ve gotten used to it. So used to it, in fact, that I actively seek out new opportunities to feel stupid. I wouldn’t know what to do without that feeling. I even think it’s supposed to be this way. Let me explain."

Chinese rocket stage CZ-2C-Y35, launched in 2014 to sun-sync orbit, reentered at 1512 UTC Jan 21 over northern Libya, heading north towards Epirus and Albania.

A rare thing, too.
The universe tends toward entropy.
One day around 32,000 years ago, an arctic ground squirrel ate parts of a plant, silene stenophylla, including its seed. The squirrel was digesting it when its life ended.
Its body was recovered from permafrost and examined. Scientists germinated this plant seed. This silene stenophylla just bloomed.
It is 32,000 years old.
The strength, the vitality and stamina of living things — of life itself — is incredible.

What I'm listening to today: "GRP A4 sequence 3:1", Klang Zaun
The A4, it turns out?, is a $5000 synthesizer the size of a desk, designed to be a "more affordable" version of the A8 (a $10,000 synthesizer the size of a wall).
No drums in this, just synth tones that don't feel so much retro as prehistoric, like that proto-electronic stuff from the 70s before Giorgio Moroder realized synths were for dance music. It's hypnotic and ends with you kind of wanting more.

One of my first trips the the Trexler Nature Preserve in 2021 was probably one of the best sunsets I've seen since.
