<p>
I live in Southbridge, Massachusetts since 2022, with my wife Sara and our
three cats. Were starting to get more integrated here. Im about to start
a new role, my third or fourth startup depending on how you count it. Im
active in
<a

rel="noopener"
>a local church</a

<h2 id="goals" tabindex="-1">
<a class="header-anchor" href="#goals" aria-hidden="true"></a> Goals
</h2>
<ul>
<li>
Learn to love God and to love people. Simple but difficult, gradual.
</li>
<li>Drive success at my new job.</li>
<li>
Improve my back-end and infrastructure skills to eventually own the
“full-stack” label.
</li>
<li>Build a passive income stream.</li>
<li>
Explore non-tech career skills, in case the world gets even wierder than
it is today.
</li>
<li>
Participate in communities:
<ul>
<li>
Initiate and maintain connections with people around me (local
community, neighbors, etc).
</li>
<li>Connect with other web and software developers.</li>

<h1>Unoffice Hours</h1>
<div class="header-meta"></div>
</header>
<p>
Working remotely has a lot of benefits, but we miss out on the
serendipitous connections and socialization that happened just from being
in the same room. Unoffice hours is part of an attempt to make new
connections, but without applying the giant invisible filter of my own
preferences.
</p>
<p>
If you want to talk about pretty much anything,
<a
href="https://cal.com/joshuaseigler/unoffice-hours"
target="_blank"
rel="noopener"
>book 30 minutes on my calendar</a
>.
</p>
<p>
We could do some pair programming, talk about tech, life, matters of
aesthetics or philosophy - the point is serendipity.
