SEEKING WORK | Portland, OR | Remote

I'm David, a programmer with over 20 years' experience. Most of my career has been back-end focused, and that's where I'm at my best, but I can get things done across a full stack.

I like to solve problems with code. Most recently I've been working in Python and Rust, but over the years I've also done tons of work in C, Perl, Clojure, Go, Ruby and more.

I particularly enjoy the challenge of working with legacy systems; if you need someone on hand to troubleshoot and maintain (or even migrate away from!) an abandoned-but-still-important system, maybe I can help.

Currently looking to fill roughly 10 hours/week.

Contact in my bio. Hope to hear from you soon :)

The limit has since been bumped to 4G. We don't have a way to change this per-customer yet, but we're not as tightly constrained for RAM as we used to be, so we could probably negotiate something if you really need more.

I'm not sure if I can do any better than "troubleshooting can be hard", frankly. The actual details are all tangled together in a way that resists summary.

Piping it in allows the build driver to be agnostic about the physical location of the container.

Thank you!

I've been telecommuting for 10 years. When I'm the only remote employee, and there isn't a culture of remoteness, I believe it's my job to have the discipline and do the extra work to stay connected, not the rest of the team's. It's a challenging dynamic, but it's not impossible, and I just don't think it's reasonable to expect the entire team to adapt to the exceptional case, instead of the other way around.

I'm the aforementioned employee hired off a who's hiring thread... and I'm having a great time :)

Fantastic. Thanks :)

I don't know the official policy, but anecdotally, I won with an entry that used libperl back in 2000: http://www.ioccc.org/years.html#2000_dlowe

How did you record that?

More-or-less yes. I started compressing and obfuscating the code after https://github.com/dlowe/death/blob/7fcbcabb9f69bf0cdfff4651...

Sorry about the commit messages. Think of them as part of the obfuscation ;)

FWIW, if anyone is curious to see the process of building my entry ("Conway's game of death") I just made the repo public: https://github.com/dlowe/death

This contest is great. I'm so glad it's happening regularly again :)
