Is the Secure Boot shim thing related to Windows breaking dual-boot setups of late? Are they all updating to avoid some kind of Secure Boot issue in general?

I just found https://google.github.io/comprehensive-rust/ today. Structured course developed by Google for its Android devs.

I found it completely by accident. Was looking at their GitHub repos for something, and saw this in there. I might even try to go through some of it (though I also want to get better at Nim).

I got on Hired; the other three seem to be more for full-time devs (I've done dev work in support of my jobs, but not as a job in itself).

I'll have a look! Thanks!

Indeed bought out GlassDoor, so I've been using that instead; as well as LinkedIn & whatnot. Market's also apparently more amenable to novices and specialized folks right now, so you're going to have better luck than a lot of us I think!

Thanks for digging into this on your end. Yeah, that 7 year stint was with an outfit wherein I was the constant, and everyone else kept coming & going. The 3 year job, I got canned for an overtime dispute; and they replaced me with two people after. The rest are a mix of layoffs or other reasons for not staying: I'm not one to just "quit". Give me the right org; that's not overly worried about being cheap, or has too many people coming & going; and I'd be happy to stay. Otherwise, I feel like my career has been more or less a "firefighter" vs a "builder" (I had to do both in the 7 year job). I hope that makes some kind of sense?

By fake recruiters and spam for PMP training...

Struggling a little with this too. The distance of time is my biggest grief: it's hard to apply for jobs, when my most relative experience for various roles is 5-10 years old. And the further along in my career, the less there is to show, or people to speak up for what I accomplished. "Did I really do that, at all"... worst case of imposter syndrome I can think of.

I think that's been asked before. That'd be a massive undertaking, and they also support architectures that I don't think Rust does (yet).

A lot of commercial apps are built with it. And if you're not using Kotlin, you're probably using Java for Android dev.

He went from a let-and-let-live, free-loving libertarian; to a more "kooky" libertarian. IMO, he was more palatable 20 years ago than now; though it's hard to top the fall-from-grace Stallman has had...
