Officially looking for work, I guess. Full stack engineer with 20 years experience, a lot of it on Rails and non-rails Ruby systems. Excel at backend, but comfortable at all levels of the stack. Only interested in remote work. Ideally async :) RT for reach, please?

Votar es por todos, para que la vida de la gente sea un poco menos mierda, para que los niños puedan ir a la escuela y puedan comer y no salir a pedir al semáforo NO ENTIENDO COMO NO LES MUEVE UN PELO

Bo, ganamos en 12 departamentos. A ver si nos lavamos la boca antes de botijear a la gente del interior. El eje del Uruguay no entra por el ombligo y sale por el culo de Montevideo. A los militantes de todo el interior, mis respetos.

Remember when mongodb came out and everyone got so hyped and started using it just to end up switching back to sql? Remember when microservices got hyped but now the industry recommends use a monolith first? Remember when graphql came out and everyone started hyping it up until they ran into tons of short comings? Give new tech 5 years and reevaluate. Adopt that mindset and become a senior engineer.

All the men butt-hurt about this scene are conveniently forgetting that Star Wars never really cared about physics in space. It's fantasy, just enjoy it. 🙄
Female Star Wars showrunners putting a crackling campfire in space is the kind of thing that happens when you get rid of mansplaining

Ok, ahora además de los obvios (La Pulpe, República, Escaramuza) tengo que agregar Media Lunas Calentitas a la lista de lugares a los que ir cuando visite Uruguay.
Con que bebida acompañarían esto?

Grammarly: You should rewrite this paragraph like this for clarity. Me: Ok Grammarly, 1 second later: You should actually change the following seventeen things in this paragraph that I just rewrote for you. Sigh.

So here's a story of, by far, the weirdest bug I've encountered in my CS career. Along with @maciejwolczyk we've been training a neural network that learns how to play NetHack, an old roguelike game, that looks like in the screenshot. Recenlty, something unexpected happened.

Back in college, I spent almost a year attempting to learn Spanish in Chile. This is how I feel about the subject.
