Ludicity
“Wow, if I was the leader of this person’s company I would immediately terminate them.” I love getting reader mail, but can no longer reply to everything. I read absolutely everything. You can reach me at: ludicity.hackernews@gmail.com. I will prioritize responding, in order, if: <ol> <li>You live in Melbourne and want coffee.</li> <li>You want to invite me onto a podcast or something because the flames of my ego are a roaring inferno that needs constant feeding, to the dismay of all those around me.</li> <li>You are a student seeking advice.</li> <li>You are an unemployed engineer that shares my values who needs help, especially from marginalized communities.</li> </ol> Podcast which is just me chatting with readers and friends. Mastodon because it’s so much nicer than Twitter. Twitter which only exists so that I can comment on posts whenever I’m featured on a podcast, which is not a sentence I ever expected to type.
