#generalist
Hello (again) World!
I suppose it's probably about time for another #introduction since I’ve moved servers. Hi! I'm me. You know I'm me because I said so, and this is the Internet so why would I lie?
I'm a #security #generalist, currently focusing on securing client devices (your employee laptops/desktops/phones) and #ZeroTrust. I like to think I'm reasonably competent with #X509 certificates and #2fa.
New year, new version of my #introduction - I'm a #generalist technician but primarily act as a computer #network admin for a range of organizations with a focus on security. I work with a truckload of different hardware and software vendors, and will post some of the weirder or more important stuff I come across in the field.
I would rather be a #bike mechanic any day of the week. When I'm not riding my #singlespeed or #commuter #bicycle I'm #reading about #transportation and #urbanism, #hiking, or trying to get my #kids to hike or bike with me. That or I'm boosting the latest/dumbest #dadjoke I see on here.

Unemployment sucks. And when you're not specialized in anything but more of a generalist you're not very attractive on the jobs market. I've studied plenty, but more of a breath within digital media and computer science, no specialization. Just give me a job, god damn it lol.

@bbak sometimes when you're a #generalist it's a problem. But when company need someone with wide knowledge, it's not that easy to find one.
And (lucky for me), still are companies on the market which needs people like me 😉
Most companies don't need what I would call a #generalist.
What they need is a rather low amount of specialists but many that are on a 80%-level of a respective #specialist in a handful of adjacent topics, so they can work on a (business) process end-to-end.
What sort of #companies look for #employees more for their problem solving abilities than their deep knowledge of a single tech stack? #job #jobs #employment #work #question #generalist
Interested in #generalist #AI systems?
With new large network models we see more domain-general AI systems emerging that are no longer restricted to narrow tasks. #genAI #LLM
To discuss the design & evaluation of these general cognition algorithms, we are organising an #AAAI #symposium in March! We would love to bring an #interdisciplinary group together. Please consider contributing your work to our symposium!

I recommend to exclude the flawed term #generalist and the overly vague term #specialist from your vocabulary!
I am a #Finnish #generalist #SoftwareEngineer and a #MachineLearning #scientist. I live in #Benalmádena, #Málaga, #Spain, #Europe in #CostaDelSol.
I live in a #polyamorous #commune of three people and three cats.
I post mainly #science, #news and #software things, mainly in #English, occasionally in #Finnish as well.
This account is #SelfHosted on #MicroK8S #Kubernetes #Linux.
Add me on the other platforms as well!
@Alikufogo thank you for sharing the full quote. Before I retired from engineering the term 'generalist' was included in my CV on the recommendation of a professional CV adviser. It was seen as a positive attribute.
#Introduction I help managers develop themselves and their teams over the course of several conversations. I have been doing this since before they call it #coaching. I also #design and facilitate #leadership development programs.
Previously, #entrepreneur (real estate, structured financing) and #academic (professor, program manager, dean).
Formal education in #linguistics, #finance, and #management.
Passion: #music

Hello! We never did a proper #introduction.
We're an #OpenSource and #NonProfit #research, #design and #development organisation, based in #Cornwall and #Sheffield in the UK. We actually care about stuff, and mostly work on #environment, #climate and #social projects.
We're all a bit #generalist, and many of our projects are rooted in rural issues, rather than being city-centric. Always open to collabs.
Most of us are on here: @nebogeo @amberfirefly @yaxu @cassandreces and @kanderson_rs

Do you know a #generalist...?
My latest podcast episode is out! I spoke to Milly Tamati, a passionate generalist & founder of Generalist World... a community supporting generalists around the world

Various features of #parasites and #hosts may influence the #likelihood of #evolutionary transitions of parasites between #freshwater and #marine environments and vice versa. These include: parasite location (endoparasitism > ectoparasitism); #life cycle #complexity (simple > complex); host #specificity (#generalist > #specialist); transmission mode (#trophic > #environmental) https://doi.org/10.1093/icb/icac050 #EvolutionaryBiology #Paleobiology #Paleontology
I see people providing an #introduction to themselves here. That doesn't fit my mentality, but I'll force myself through it anyways. See? I like you people, mostly... I think.
I'm a full stack electromancer. I enjoy talking about anything from the silicon physics level up to modern computer science topics. In my more recent life I've adopted a #devops role professionally and continue to be a #technology #generalist.
I enjoy #worldbuilding and running #dnd campaigns for friends.
They used to call folks like me #renaissance man, but this has shifted to #polymath, and then even further simplified to #generalist.
In simple terms, it means I'm "into a lot of stuff," which results in me posting varied things, 90% of which you won't be interested in.
This is why #hashtags are SO important here - more important than "follows." Fill your feed with a hashtag #search that bring you joy, so you're seeing what you want MOST of the time.

I'm a #techie and a #generalist. I do best when I'm tearing stuff apart to work out how to fix (or break) it. I occasionally write about #infosec as a result.
I write at bentasker.co.uk about various topics, gradually building up an archive of #documentation covering a range of things, but mostly around #Linux and #software development
Ok, #introduction. Living in #Madison roots in #Seattle. #Father of two young humans. #Husband. #RaisedByWomen. #Generalist in a #specialized industry. I’ve been told I need to focus. So I do. On a lot of things.

Hello, World!
I suppose it's probably about time for my #introduction. Hi! I'm me. You know I'm me because I have a verified check beside my name, which is serious business. I had to prove I'm a cyber pathogen, but not that lying-dormant cyber pathogen (https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/mar/04/san-bernardino-da-baffles-security-community-lying-dormant-cyber-pathogen-iphone). Which is really hard when still no one knows what a cyber pathogen even is!
I'm a #security #generalist, currently focusing on securing client devices (your employee laptops/desktops/phones) and #zerotrust. I like to think I'm reasonably competent with #X509 certificates and #2fa. A major interest of mine is the #UX of security, applying/adding security with minimal disruption, and trying to communicate security so the average person can understand.
I'm at home with #Fedora and other RHEL-based distros, but I'm also good with macOS and #OpenBSD and I even have a decent idea of what I'm doing with Windows.
I'm #autistic and #adhd, so I tend to see things differently and I have an easier time seeing the entire system and how things flow through the system. Of course, a lot of times that's closely followed by "oh look a squirrel". I have mild face blindness and #aphantasia, so don't expect me to be able to visualize something and if I walk past you in the street I honestly didn't recognize you.
A quick #introduction
I'm a #generalist - a shy extrovert (yes we exist). I'm into a lot of things.
I'm hoping this platform has more grass roots #diy stuff than the others. I would love to learn some new interesting things.
I skipped writing an #Introduction whilst getting up and running, but correcting that now.
I'm Ben - I'm a #techie & a #generalist. I'm best at tearing stuff apart to figure out how it works (and by extension how to fix/break it), which leads me down various rabbit holes including #infosec ones.
I write at bentasker.co.uk & have been building a #Documentation archive for a little over a decade, covering #linux, #programming and some other stuff
Wer sein #Geschäft nicht #selbst #aufgebaut, sondern #vermacht #bekommen hat, hat nicht die #Fähigkeit #Generalist für #alles zu sein und #beherrscht sein #Handwerk nicht.
#Beherrschung ist #symbiotische #Wechselwirkung von #Kontrolle mit einem als #nützlich iSv #wünschenswert #anerkannten #System, auf das kein #eigenständiger #Wille #zugerechnet wird.
