A primary factor in choosing my latest job was having an office to go into. I’ve been going in M-F and love working in person again. I don’t think forcing everyone back is necessarily the right strategy, but instead encouraging teams to re-form around people with similar preferences.

Hi HN!
I'm an infra engineer with video and applied cryptography experience. I'm also branching out into xr and rendering, with my eye on hard-tech use cases. I'm never afraid to dive into an RFC (I've implemented pieces of SSH, PGP, VP8, RTP). My k8s experience also runs deeper than just deploying yamls -- I have written controllers/operators for more specialized workloads.
I have been a rustacean since the 1.0 release in 2015. In my experience the steeper learning curve has paid off in dividends as codebase size scales. I love teaching and have helped multiple coworkers learn rust to proficiency. I'm comfortable being the first to bring rust to an org (microservice best practices, CI setup, dev environments etc) and have deployed rust to most targets (server, lambda, macOS, Windows, iOS, android, web frontend, steamVR, Oculus).
If you think there's a potential fit let's chat! :)

The bing searches that appear in my taskbar search have never been useful and just pollute the local results I’m looking for. I’ve tried disabling them with regedit tricks to no avail.
Nice post! Might be worth mentioning that some data structure implementations already exist in std or as a crate, i.e. std::collections::BTreeSet and petgraph. While it’s good to understand how Rc/Weak/raw pointers work, I always check if there is a battle-tested version of what I need before reaching for them.
My daily driver is Debian WSL2, using wezterm (highly recommend) + tmux for terminal, and vscode integration for IDE. Aside from struggles getting custom subdomains to point to localhost, things have been quite stable.
I never thought I’d be saying this, but I find the Windows window manager the best out of the box, and as a bonus I get to do my unreal/vr dev side projects without booting into another OS.
