"When someone makes a decision, he is really diving into a strong current that will carry him to places he had never dreamed of when he first made the decision.

I’m like everyone else–I see the world in terms of what I would like to see happen, not what actually does.

When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it." - Paulo Coelho

Sun popping through the clouds, giving the Athasbaca glacier a breath. Extreme temperatures & wind prevent the snow from sticking on the many rocks around. The heart of the North American continent resides off the Columbia Icefield above. You can feel it when your there. Why I believe that is because these waters flow to every ocean surrounding the continent.
Sun breaking through the clouds. Athabasca Glacier flowing down into the basin below. Photo from 2023; the glacier would have been where the photo was taken 50-60 years before.
Waves of snow formed like grains of desert sand. Light reflections glimmer through crystals of frozen water.

Particularly in a country where we’re seeing rapidly intensifying
💥campaigns against books, libraries, and librarians,
I am extremely concerned by an outcome that not only imposes
💥further limits on how libraries can provide books to the people who need them,
but seems to
💥view libraries as detrimental to society.

We must fight to protect our rights to read freely, and fight back against the #censorship, #surveillance, and #rent-#seeking that publishers and book distribution platforms have been working to not only normalize, but protect by law.

My beliefs are simple, and hardly radical:
Libraries are critical infrastructure.
Access to information is a human right.
When you buy a book you should truly own it.
When a library buys a book, they should be able to lend it.
Readers should be able to read without any third parties spying over their shoulders, or preventing them from accessing the materials they have legally obtained

Hey #Fediverse the new startup I’m mentoring is looking for a hardware/software development person or team that can design a “battery management system” (BMS) for a new Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) that we’re prototyping and preparing to manufacture. If you or anyone in your network is interested, please respond or DM me for more information. #Seeking #jobs #SoftwareDevelopment #SoftwareEngineer #HardwareDev #SoftwareDev #JobPosting @johnvenr

“Every search begins with beginner’s luck. And every search ends with the victor’s being severely tested. You will never be able to escape from your heart. So it’s better to listen to what it has to say. Remember that wherever your heart is, there you will find your treasure. You’ve got to find the treasure, so that everything you have learned along the way can make sense. People are capable, at any time in their lives, of doing what they dream of.”

words by Paulo Coelho, recompiled out of context from the book The Alchemist

The Alchemy of the mountains is bearing witness to the sun’s transformation of gray rock into gold. The experience leaves an impression felt deep within. Creating experiences in nature is a real treasure to share.

Alpine glow reflections light up a rocky ridge top mountain. Witnessing the sunset transform the gray rock into a golden glow for a moment. Key hole in the rock.
Blue sky, gray rock mountain ridge top with a few scattered trees. Key hole in the rock.
Catching the last moment of sunset from a high elevation view.Witnessing a warm band of orange glow chasing the sun as it sets.

Dear Friends of the #Flip, :black_block_blob:
As we may #know, just when we have it all #figured out and #convinced it is true… :ablobblastoff:
What we know, what we #think, what is #useful everything can flip #around to its #opposite: :anonymous:
For #example I no longer believe in #Santa Clause. I know longer believe in #coincidence. I know people are #capable. The Tooth #fairy is a capitalist. :ablobrollingeyes:

In this #sense #wisdom is #where we #find it, not where we are looking, #seeking #confirmation #bias etc. :ablobsplosion:

#Time to #reevaluate? :netkitty:

I'm currently open to new employment. I'm a "seasoned" systems engineer / software dev with 13 years of experience across a variety of tech stacks, but mainly .NET and .NET Core. I'm looking for something along the lines of build engineering, automated testing, and integration. Ideal workplace is #remote, uses #linux or #unix as well as the #microsoft .NET stack.

Sorry for the repost, accidentally hit the delete button while trying to re-draft it.
