I mentioned that I hadn’t been updating this blog, and that wasn’t just a matter of there being nothing to talk about.
Back in July I got laid off by DeviantArt. Since that was their second layoffs round of 2015, I think it’s fair to say that they’re having some problems.
This was non-ideal for me. In retrospect, I should probably have started looking around for a new job after the first layoffs round, but I’ll count that as a learning experience.
Fortunately, I then spent a month on downtime and relaxing, because I’d been terrible at taking vacation time at DeviantArt and they thus had to pay out a lot of vacation hours to lay me off.
Now I’m part of the Visual Editor team at the Wikimedia Foundation. I help people edit Wikipedia, essentially.
