I have greatly revised my introduction. Whilst you might not want to take a look, I think you'll like that I clearly state that I boost posts that announce authors' work and publications. I do this pretty much unconditionally, as I believe it's the right thing to do, but there is a caveat.

Hey #getfedihired 🌿 My name is Mattie and I’m an artist looking for work! I primarily do illustrations but I also do graphic design on the side! If you’re interested, get in touch with me! Any and all boosts and likes are much appreciated 💜 #illustration #lookingforwork #fantasyart #fantasyillustration

I’m a 18‐year‐old transgirl from Eastern Germany. My parents are right‐wing extremists and have a problem with trans people. I am currently staying with my grandma, but she wants me out by 8 September latest.

I am going to stay with a friend from 9 to 10 September, but I still need a place to crash from 8 to 9 September, and also a more permanent solution for the time after. I am not bound to any particular place, but I would like to stay in Germany for now.

I am also looking for a job in IT, preferably in systems operations. I have been working with Linux in my free time for a few years now and I am really into NixOS. CV upon request.

I read a book and I liked it 🙂

It's been a while since I've compleed a book. I've picked up multiple books over the last few years and I generally couldn't finish them.

But then I started reading "Pink Tuxedo" this weekend and by the time I got to the middle of the book, I couldn't put it down.

Here's my review:

LAST DAY!

In honor of Tales of Ardonna appearing in more markets, I've created my first Smashwords coupons! 🥳

From now until September 1, the first book in each timeline is half off.

The Mage Era is technically the beginning:

If you enjoy more classic fantasy tropes, you might prefer the Dragon Age:

Or jump right into the Modern Era, where people are losing their minds:

It's time for the job hunt again. If you've been enjoying my posts now's your chance to see how I work!

If anyone has NY-based or remote #UX or #ProductManagement roles at the Lead/Manager/Director level, please sent them my way!

And if not - I'd still appreciate the signal boost.

#FediHired #GetFediHired #Jobhunt

Due to the massive layoffs at Branch two weeks ago, I am currently in search of a new job opportunity.

I'm looking for something along the lines of customer support specialist, customer support manager, customer service manager, community management, social media management or similar. (cont...)

I have to replace the cover of my science fiction novel, but I'm torn as to which one to go with. Can you help me figure out which one is the better cover?

Please let me know which one you like. And also, please share for reach 🙂

After you publish your novel, you need to promote it.

Finding review readers can sometimes be very hard. Here's my follow up thoughts about some book review services after using them for a while. If you're an aspiring author, maybe my experiences will help you avoid some of the traps and pitfalls? I sure hope so!

Does anyone know of any fiction/poetry-centric corners of the fedi? I've started writing again (at long last!) and would love to find more places to share my own work and engage with other writers.

First post on #mastodon, getting to know the place. Mostly interested in #science & #scicom content. Hello everyone! 👋

Hey #fediverse, I want to connect to more people here.

I am a #MachineLearning engineer who has experience with #python, #golang, some #rust, #php and #JavaScript. I also love research and have a paper published in #CVPR. Currently, I am using #AI for improving the safety on the roads. I've worked as full-stack engineer in the past.

I find this platform and people here awesome. I've had amazing interactions and want to grow them.

Hey all! I'm still on the job hunt for a junior iOS dev position. I started doing iOS in undergrad and have focused on CS education since graduating. Unfortunately, I was impacted by layoffs at my most recent teaching position and could really use a new opportunity. I'd greatly appreciate any leads. :) Feel free to check out my portfolio here: davidruvinskiy.com.

Quick reminder that my current job is killing me so share my resume and help me find a new one before I literally die from the stress of 50+ hour weeks.

I wrote my first novel over 20 years ago. Then I got busy with work and life and didn't write for the longest time. Finally, my second novel is out today. It's a science fiction novel called "Sir Lanka Files" set in a future Sri Lanka thousands of years from now.

The book is on Amazon here:

Please take a look and if you like what you see, please share with your friends who might like it too and help an indie author out 🙂

Refreshed my writing portfolio with some samples. Happy to chat if any indie folks would like a bit of freelance narrative/writing.

I'm great at lore, world building, juicy flavour text and unique characters.

Happy to say a piece of flash fiction I wrote " The climb" has been published in the Fairfield Scribes anthology.

I just turned in my #thesis for my MSc in #ComputerScience with #DataAnalytics at #UniversityofYork!

The title of my thesis is “Exploring the impact of data imbalance on ε-Differential Privacy” and I do just that using the open-source Python library developed by IBM, diffprivlib. I’d love to share the results of my experiments in a white paper of some kind. Does anyone I’m connected to have experience in converting a masters thesis into a white paper for a journal or conference?
