Where are all the reverse engineers, compiler devs, and OS devs at!? There must be some people interested in this stuff around these parts...

@lunarood hewwo, i happen to have all of those skills
unusually for our local social bubble, i have a blend of academia and self-taught skills. not very good at communities though but would certainly like to be part of more
@r Hi!
Do you mean the social bubble around you? A mix of academia and self-taught skills seems to be the standard from where I'm standing 
(wait... or was that a sarcastic "unusually"?)
@lunarood the social bubble around me seems to be much heavier on the self-taught skills. the people we know with more academia skills tended to end up in normie job roles
@r I see. Well, I do know a lot of people who went through academia, but then ended up working in completely different fields later on.
I'm mostly self-taught, so I guess I'm not really expanding your academic circle in that sense. But I think there's a pretty good mix here on fedi, and I've been glad to find lots of receptive, non-gatekeepy academics and non-academics alike.
