00:02 🔗 bithippo Most unfortunate, but understandable.
00:04 🔗 bithippo Representing items as torrents feels like a nice compromise/bridge until content addressable web is here, but I digress.
00:09 🔗 bithippo IA has a bunch of job openings available. Do they do anything like a 6 month unpaid tour of duty?
00:10 🔗 bithippo (I am aware AT does not represent IA. Just curious if someone knows.)
00:19 🔗 rsznikk has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
00:28 🔗 hook54321 bithippo: What's tour of duty?
00:29 🔗 bithippo Short stint on a project instead of a long term employment/position.
00:30 🔗 bithippo Picked up the idea from the US Digital Service [https://www.usds.gov/join-government.html], who have technical resources come in for a limited amount of time due to how they have to structure their employment to provide the level of compensation required.
00:30 🔗 bithippo Turns out, you can pay someone $130k-$160k year to come fix broken gov tech, but since they're jumping the usual civil servant line the contract can only last 1-4 years.

02:19 🔗 robogoat bithippo: I would love to fix broken gov tech, unfortunately they are all typically in DC it looks like.
02:19 🔗 bithippo That is why I did not go.
02:20 🔗 bithippo Although 18F will accept remote workers.
02:20 🔗 bithippo https://18f.gsa.gov/join/
02:20 🔗 bithippo "For most of our roles, you can live anywhere in the United States."
02:20 🔗 bithippo No open positions currently though.
02:22 🔗 robogoat Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if it was shelved as other initiatives have been.
02:23 🔗 robogoat bithippo: for many things happening at the IA, I don't know if you need to be on a "tour of duty" to contribute.
02:24 🔗 bithippo Good to know.
02:24 🔗 robogoat https://github.com/internetarchive/ have at it.
02:27 🔗 robogoat Disclaimer, I don't work there or anything.
02:27 🔗 bithippo Didn't think you did :)
02:31 🔗 robogoat *sigh* not that I wouldn't like to. I just (a) have no desire to live in SF, and (b) didn't feel like I was able to contribute effectively remotely.
02:32 🔗 bithippo Totally hear the first part. The second part, I wouldn't be so sure about.
02:32 🔗 bithippo You never know what you're capable of until you've tried.
02:33 🔗 robogoat I tried.
02:33 🔗 robogoat Currently 100% remote, and I have... strong opinions.
02:33 🔗 bithippo lol
02:33 🔗 bithippo I was at a fully remote startup for 3 years.
02:33 🔗 bithippo And now I'm back in an office 2 days a week
02:33 🔗 robogoat I hot desk with a local company.
02:34 🔗 robogoat Couldn't do the "I haven't left the house in 3 weeks" thing, though I know many who can.
02:34 🔗 bithippo Is everyone remote? Or select folks?
02:34 🔗 robogoat Pretty much everybody.
02:34 🔗 bithippo You have to get out of the house at least daily.
02:35 🔗 bithippo (IMHO)
02:35 🔗 robogoat I know I do. For a while, too, not just a walk around the block.
02:46 🔗 bithippo Make sure you're happy with whatever you're doing. It's a balance.

03:08 🔗 bithippo Yeah, sounds like SF to me.
03:09 🔗 hook54321 I mean, the building literally used to be a church.
03:09 🔗 bithippo Oh, sorry, I know :) I've been there before.
03:10 🔗 bithippo @robogoat: Hashicorp has a ton of remote engineering positions
03:11 🔗 hook54321 we might want to consider moving this conversation to #archiveteam-ot
03:11 🔗 bithippo Whoops.
