Scatterbrained and friendly optimist. Always happy to give my (unasked for) opinion :)

Pardon my rambling and broken English, I know I often sound like an alien trying to impersonate a human being.

  • I think an important factor for standing out from the local applicants could be the potential domain knowledge you bring to the table.

    Plenty of developers around. But a developer with extensive knowledge and experience with, for example, specific logistic chains is a lot harder to find. In my (limited) experience it is often a reason why an exception for hiring foreign talent is made.
    Skills can be learned with a course and a certificate, but domain knowledge comes from hard earned experience in specific industries.

    “Sir, can I interest you in a late night snack?”

    Made with DALL-E 3.

    Prompt: A photorealistic, anthropomorphic cat vendor at a bustling night market, selling grilled rats on skewers. The cat stands upright, wearing a traditional street vendor apron and a conical hat or headwrap, with expressive eyes and a sly smile. Its food stall is lit by warm lantern light, with smoke rising from a small charcoal grill. Grilled rats on sticks are neatly displayed on a tray. The background shows other night market stalls, colorful hanging lights, and a lively crowd. The atmosphere is moody and cinematic, with deep shadows and vibrant highlights, blending elements of Asian street market culture with whimsical fantasy.

    At first pass, the grilled rats did not look very convincing, so I fixed them using Fooocus’s inpainting feature. This required about a dozen or so attempts, as the engine seems to have difficulty creating convincing grilled rats, so I finally opted for these more shish kabob looking things.
