How does Foone spend so much time on all these "here's something interesting I found, now it's a 12-hour-long deep-dive into something I never thought I could care passionately about" things and still have a job?

Turing's living the dream... (the family name has to be a coincidence, right?)




they use they, not he, but they have a lot of followers on ko-fi! https://ko-fi.com/fooneturing


Do they have a day job? I thought they lived off their Patreon. They definitely changed their first and last name at some point, I remember a Twitter thread mentioning it.


They're a Continuous Integrator at Backblaze, according to their LinkedIn.


Is it multiple people writing the Twitter posts?


Does foone have a job? I know he has a Patreon.


[flagged]


I know they have a Patreon because I saw it on their wiki[0] which I read through after seeing their death generator a few months ago. Their wiki didn't mention their gender identity preferences, and I don't follow their blog or twitter or anything, so I wasn't aware, sorry...
