so hey we're looking for work, preferably in a non-profit, but given the historical moment we're at, we're open to for-profit if it's doing something socially positive we have a strong background in information privacy (ex-Google). we have years of non-profit governance experience. we've been coding intensely since early childhood and, depending how you count, have nearly 40 years of experience at that. we also have experience managing other programmers. anyone know of anything?

Everybody who is hiring, please consider Irenes. I've known them online for many years. They are very insightful and smart, and most importantly: they care and will make a great addition to your team! @ireneista

@ireneista “we have a strong background in information privacy (ex-Google)” In violating it, you mean? Because that’s what Google does. That’s its business model. Are you proud of having worked there? Because I don’t see how that aligns with “bring[ing] the highest standards of ethical practice to your organization.” I would love to boost your post but I won’t as I have no desire to cast Google on a positive light in any way, shape, or form because they are a genocide-complicit surveillance capitalist and part and parcel of Silicon Valley/US fascism.

@ireneista no direct connection with them but I’ve followed Propel efforts to help Americans using and managing snap benefits better. They do make money from advertising which is always a bit sus but they seem to be mindful of it

@ireneista@adhd.irenes.space nothing comes to mind. But.... I have suddenly realized, while reading your post, that we need a federated privacy respecting micro-games platform. Just silly little training games like 2048 and coding games and solitaire, to start, but something genuine devs can post games on, and get paid, without in-app purchases, fully federated.
