In 2015, Graber began working as a software engineer for SkuChain in Mountain View, California. She then worked in a factory in Moses Lake, Washington, where she soldered bitcoin mining equipment. In 2016, she began working as a junior developer for the Zcash cryptocurrency.

So lately I have been trying to figure out why people are calling BlueSky decentralized and I noticed that fun fact. It made me realize how cryptocurrencies are something else that was often technically "decentralized" but in reality controlled by a single person or group.

In case it's also not known, Jack Dorsey who helped found BlueSky is a big cryptocurrency booster.

So? She was a junior engineer, probably just needed the money to scrape by. You've never worked low level roles at morally questionable companies?

started my career as a developer working for an adult entertainment industry company (porn) so yeah. Everything I know today is from titties and the bang bus.

So many questions! You should consider doing an ama here sometime

I did one years ago on Reddit and someone made a youtube video out of it without my permission that went semi-viral so I'm sure it's on there somewhere. Just youtube something like "Reddit porn industry AMA"

that's so shitty, I'm sorry they stole your content. Well, if you ever decide to do one here I couldn't promise someone wouldn't do it, but it'd be much less likely
