I don’t get many recruiter messages. I think I ignore most of the ones that go to my personal email address which is listed on GitHub/my blog.

I also do my best to appear unemployable. For instance, my title on LinkedIn is “Master of the Custodial Arts.”

I originally made it my title because when hiring for my job one of the candidates said it sounded like "janitorial work." Apparently maintaining open source packages makes you a janitor. Embracing that. 😂
