Just wanted to paste it here for absolutely no reason…
Hello,
I’m currently applying one of your jobs and would like to briefly introduce myself for your interests.
I’m a (yet) amateur coder, translator, and packager etc. with ~10 years of experience of using and working with the GNU+Linux operating system and F.O.S.S. in general on daily basis. I’m quite fond of troubleshooting and workaround/solving software/firmware/hardware-related problems encountered by myself or by the local community fellows and is quite active in several projects, including but not limited, to:
- Git Cola: The highly caffeinated Git GUI
- WoeUSB: A tool that enables you to create your own windows installer USB key from an existing installation image
- The Snapcrafters: A group of community contributors working to get snaps published by upstream projects
If you’re looking for someone with the following characteristics, you’re more than welcome to drop a line:
- Comfortable working with the command-line interface
- Comfortable reading documentation in manpage/Texinfo formats
- Uses a debugger instead of
printf(3)
s, and knows how to generate a stacktrace - Writes proper SCM commit messages
- Knows what a mailing list is
- Uses UTF-8 (without the byte-order mark) instead of BIG5
- Separates the content and the presentation of the document, including this one
- Knows how to use the following commands:
git add --patch _path_
git rebase --interactive _base_
git bisect [start|bad|good|...]
_random_command_ 2>&1 | tee _random_command_.log
…I’m not sure what else should I boast around here, however, I do have a habit of pushing most of my work(as long as the copyright holder allows) on GitHub:

My résumé should be attached to this letter, if not, here’s an online copy:
Thanks!

Buo-ren, Lin
