Today alone, I’ve seen more people told to return to the office than I can remember.
For disabled workers, “just come in” can mean unsafe transit, denied rides, high costs, pain, fatigue, or leaving a job they can do well from home.
RTO policy is accessibility policy. Employers and policymakers need to ask who these mandates quietly push out.

I'm looking for work, please boost!
I'm a senior software engineer with 35 years of experience. I've worked across an unusually wide range of domains: mobile game backends, privacy-preserving data platforms, high-throughput COVID testing infrastructure, email and account systems, e-payment processing, job marketplace systems, and bioinformatics. I pick up new domains quickly and have a track record of doing it repeatedly. I understand how to turn business needs into engineering requirements.
I've worked remotely since the 1990s and can operate with minimal supervision. I don't need hand-holding to find the right problem to solve. Several of my most valued projects were self-directed: I identified the need, built the thing, and shipped it.
Some of the technologies I'm familiar with include: Python, Perl, TypeScript/JavaScript, Haskell, Go, C, Java. Postgres, MySQL, SQLite. Flask, SQLAlchemy. AWS (Lambda, S3, RDS, SQS, EC2). Docker, Git. Github and Gitlab.
I've also repeatedly picked up new languages and stacks as needed: Haskell for differential privacy research, TypeScript for a 24/7 AWS Lambda system, Flask for my most recent employer. I've become productive with new systems over and over, and I can do it quickly.
I'm also a published author (Higher-Order Perl, Morgan Kaufmann), longtime blogger, and conference speaker with a reputation for making complex ideas clear.

Edit: Reboosting from November. Still looking for work. Thank you!
So I lost my job yesterday, which means I'm looking to #GetFediHired! I've been a Senior Software Dev for ~8 years, but I've been programming for more than 20 years.
I have lots of experience with C, C++, C#, Python, JS, x86 and other assembly. I've touched a lot of languages on several platforms. I have worked a bunch in simulation and robotics (ROS), open-source software, and 2D and 3D graphics.
Hoping to work with interesting people on interesting projects. Diversity and accessibility are very important to me. Remote work is preferred. I am in Canada.
Edit: Getting ahead of this now. No GenAI cultism please. No late-stage corpo ad-serving, data scraping, always online, crypto stuff either.
Thank you in advance, I love you!
Building psychological safety in remote teams can be tough. Without a shared physical space, it's harder for individuals to speak up or admit mistakes freely.
@Nativewired led a debate exploring practical approaches to intentionally cultivate and maintain this essential trust, even when teams are working apart.
