Hi all,
Our NYC meetup was fun, and we want to do more without annoying everyone else.
So: we made a list for New Yorkers to make plans and complain about stuff.
Sign up here: https://lists.tildeverse.org/postorius/lists/nyc.lists.tildeverse.org/
To start your own local tilde list, email benharri@tilde.club and be ready to moderate.
In other news, I owe you an intro, so

Hello /~everyone!
I'm Ben.
You might remember me from:
- The mobile team at Vice, which I hired and managed - The iOS readers at the New York Times - The Longform dot org iPhone and iPad apps - A desktop blog editor for the Mac called "Blogo" back in the aughties - The Shame Eraser, which AFAIK was the first open-source tweet-deleter - Any of the other articles I did for ~jwherrman before ~mat took over BF tech
My relationship with the tilde is complicated. I never wanted to work as a programmer. (Engineering wasn't "cool" before the App Store.) But my gramps gave me a Mac in '91, my school taught BASIC and when I graduated it paid well and came easily.
Now I work on all the cool parts of HR: interviewing employees and designing infrastructure like hiring and onboarding plans to maintain a healthy culture. It's like product design, but the "customers" spend 8-14h/day in the product, which I'm sure no one here does with any app.
My tilde is ~bj, but there's nothing there, so please accept this modern, pink website in its place:

See you all around,

P.S. If you identify with an underrepresented group in tech and need advice on your career, or the company you run, or anything really, I have office hours at https://ftw.nyc/office-hours and you should book a slot.
We’re multiplying it seems - I’m Phil, and I’m in Manchester.
