My dream job is a library IT guy. It just seems ethical compared to something like FAANG.

    The philosophy of libraries are great, but the reality is that they are cost-centres that are usually financially neglected. Public libraries especially, IT depts especially especially. Ask any librarian or library worker ☹️

    The author of Heated Rivalry donated $300k to save five libraries that were slated to close due to underfunding. That's wonderful news, but she's only bought them one year. But hopefully her celebrity and the donation brings enough attention to the matter. We need to vocally support libraries!
