Computers are an incredibly powerful tool, and I am always looking for ways to help others take advantage of that power. To that end, I have worked on projects ranging from configuration management (with a focus on deep integration with Linux and commercial Unix platforms) to blockchain (focusing on real-world assets and actual applications for the technology).

My main technical skills are in systems/lower-level programming. I enjoy the challenge of making complex functionality work in a performance-constrained environment. But I also know that code doesn't live in a vacuum, and I care a lot about making sure what I'm building actually solves problems for the business and the customer. I am always looking for opportunities to work more closely with stakeholders to ensure me and my team are on the right track.

I have lots of experience supporting interns and junior engineers, and always love opportunities to be a teacher or mentor. Looking for someone to help your team level up on Rust? I could be who you're searching for!

C tolower() is locale aware and handles utf-8 as well as many other encodings

2017 is quite a long time ago, especially in terms of how long smartphones have been around (and arguably even in terms of how long cell phones have been mainstream).

The US is way behind here.

Hydrofluoric acid. Nasty, nasty stuff.

This is absolutely a false equivalence.

Google and Meta choose to give the government all sorts of data that they're not required by law to give, because they don't see it as worthwhile to go to bat for their users. You can choose to use a vendor who will protect your privacy and demand full due process on the part of government requestors.

In China there is no due process and no choice of vendors who would demand it, even if they could.

Most advertised commercial uses of "AI" are glorified search. This seems like an improvement in that space?

You greatly overestimate how long systematic weather data collection has occurred across even first-world countries, nevermind the rest of the globe. There are certainly many, many places _right now_ where daily weather info isn't logged

25 feet is actually pretty far. You could be on top of a two story building or across the street and still be "too close". Obviously neither of those cases would interfere with an officer's duties.

To me this law is clearly overreaching, and seems intended to scare people off from trying to see what their "officers of the law" are doing.

In pure water it's not an issue. In drinking water which has all sorts of "stuff", getting very to that level of precision isn't easy.

What is your alternative which is better than a jury trial?
