Software engineer and farmer living in rural Japan.
If you’re looking for a remote senior software engineer (most recently golang, but I’ve worked in a little bit of everything in the last 20 years), I’d love to hear from you. Japan PR, Canadian and US citizenship. Native English speaker, proficient Japanese, learning Norwegian (now between A2 and B1, though listening/speaking is lagging a bit due to lack of chance to practice), and some very rusty German and French I could get back to speed on.

Yep. I moved to rural Japan because my company was fine with remote anywhere in Japan. Started my small farm and my life here. They assured me it wouldn’t be a barrier for advancement as well.
Now, the same company is trying to get everyone fulltime back in the office, over 4 hours each way from my house. They won’t pay the cost of even one day. I will likely lose my job. I don’t think I live through this.


Look at that giant… Wang! (Rest of the gag I no longer remember)
As a software engineer, please do.
The frozen toilet discharge from air raft? Pretty sure that’s basically the same as any other answer
But you certainly can say “let’s” and not just “le’'s” right? We don’t have it word-initial in a standalone context, but it exists. Certainly, it should be pronounced then, right?
It drives me crazy that people skip the ‘t’ in ‘tsunami’. Do you want a vinegar wave? That’s how we get vinegar waves


If they’re so much better and more talented and worthy than everyone else, I’m sure they’d have no issue being stripped of all their assets, connections, property, money, etc. so they can prove how awesome and successful they are all over again.


no disassemble!


Fantastic; those things are terrible. Also, if one of your companies could hire me so I can move there, that would be great. Takk!
she wanted soft fries.
It’s OK to be wrong sometimes, I guess :P
Does this mean soft as in limp and not crispy? That’s how I took it, but maybe there is another consideration.


The one guy says he didn’t know an application was needed to stay post-brexit. How does that happen? Maybe because I am a chronic worrier, I would be checking on shit every day until I was sure it was sorted.
Minor Wavy Bits. The pacific, being bigger, is of course Major Wavy Bits.


he new limit, which went into effect on Tuesday, applies to residential roads with no centre line or maximum speed signs, media reports said.
So not all city streets if they’re already signed higher (many are). Additionally, this is not just in cities; I live in the countryside and tons of roads are unmarked with no center line. Terrible wording from the guardian.
This would be amusing in japanese <-> English as the word order is roughly opposite. There are a few implementation strategies that are varying degrees of trash
As someone learning Norwegian, I am often in this picture


Books written vertically in Japanese are largely read right-to-left, but horizontally-written books are now more commonly left-to-right, particularly magazines and such. Newspapers can be a bit all over the place.
There’s no reason one couldn’t publish a smaller-form-factor book in English, but what’s the market for that? No one is going to do it without a market. People in the US often carry big bags or drive as opposed to using public transit like in a lot of urban Japan where space can be smaller.


Our vehicle inspections (3rd year for new vehicles otherwise every 2 years) in Japan strictly test the speedo, but I guess I don’t know for sure that they aren’t letting it display faster than reality.


Then go make one to suit your needs. You can even base it on the blockchain as all those want ads I’ve seen seem to want people to do.
Gotta get air and vent exhaust at some point. Be a shame if anything happened to those interfaces.
