A rare #work post from me, in the theme of #GetFediHired — with the caveat it is #Cambridge (UK) based, just outta town, in a beautiful spot in Comberton (4 days in office, Wednesday WfH and an annual allocation of ad-hoc WfH days.)Our core work is #Python ( #django ) with #Typescript ( #solidjs ) at the front end, there's some #Rust floating about too (but it's not a big part of things).#Job roles in #software, #physiotherapy, regulatory, and more : Flok Health JobsNews: $12.5m Series A funding roundAnd for the Fedi audience: It says AI a lot, which has its uses... our core tech is not GenAI and isn't burning the planet down any more than tech in general. Our stuff just runs on a normal server, no GPUs!As devs here we are under no pressure to use GenAI tools... though the option is there, with very careful safeguarding. (At core we have a regulated medical device, we do not play "vibe coding" games with this stuff.)

@kagan Hey now, Toronto has better weather than Buffalo! But I do get it; we are also a bit too close to the action for comfort, if we're being honest.(& yeah, my phrasing was ambiguous - I should have said "your job classification" or something similar)

As an alternative, feel free to sponsor my open source work directly! I have recently improved performance significantly for the `time` crate, including a 3× gain in parsing format descriptions (on top of the gains actually parsing/formatting values). Without funding, this will necessarily slow down or stop at some point.https://github.com/sponsors/jhpratt

@philpem if I had the budget and permission to hire folks, in a god damn heartbeat.
