Okay, I've tried everything else, let's see what happens here. I'm a 56yo IT professional currently facing age discrimination in the job market. My skills are proven and broad. I can do operations, project management, service delivery; am versed in multiple OSs, monitoring systems, ticketing platforms. I'm a technical writer and published author. I'm willing to relocate pretty much anywhere for a job that pays enough to cover my mortgage. I need employment by Sept 30. CV on request. #job #dayjob

"There is no amount of regulation, transparency, or oversight that will fix the dangers inherent in widespread face surveillance. Only a full ban — a federal ban, covering the use of facial recognition by government agencies, in public places, and in public contracts with private entities — can prevent our nightmares from becoming reality." https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/evangreer/dont-regulate-facial-recognition-ban-it

@rtwx If it's dual purpose that means you can spend twice as much, right?
@jwildeboer Apparently so :) I thought it was in wide use -- good thing it isn't.
@jwildeboer I hope everyone has their paper maps and compasses handy

🚨 Foreigners crossing certain Chinese borders are being forced to install malware on their Android phones.
"The malware downloads a tourist’s text messages, calendar entries, and phone logs, as well as scans the device for over 70,000 different files." https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/7xgame/at-chinese-border-tourists-forced-to-install-a-text-stealing-piece-of-malware
@lx For postgresql I've used database/sql from the core library, as well as https://github.com/jmoiron/sqlx/ (but note that I'm not terribly experienced with Go yet, still kicking the tires, but I like it better than anything else so far).
@lx By not using objects :) functions and composition are much easier to reason about anyway.
