Presently I list only a few companies in the Germany section of The Global Computer Industry Index.

Yet my web server log files give me the insight that most of my visitors are from Germany. Clearly I'm not serving their needs yet.

Can you suggest some small- to medium-sized Software or Hardware companies for me to list?

It's easy for me to find publicly-traded companies as well as multinationals but even so it's OK if you want to point some others out to me.

At your option, mail your suggestions top incoming@soggy.jobs or alternatively post them in a comment herein.

But I don't feel the need to go to the Emergency Room.

I'm going to ask my Primary Care Physician to refer me to a Neurologist.

I'm making the same kinds of mistakes that brain-damaged people do.

I was brutally beaten by two police officers in 2012. I was unconscious for three days.

When I woke up, while I could correctly visualize the spelling of my own name when I thought about it, I was incapable of spelling it right when I tried to write it on paper with a pencil.

...worked out so well last time!

It seems to be a problem with our server. Our sysadmin has the day off; I asked the Engineering VP if I should ask him to fix it today.

This just in: "Yes," replied the VP. Sucks to be a SysAdmin.

I tried to do an "svn resolve" when I suddenly found the macOS Finder's window that was open to my project hierarchy started boogieing.

By the time it was done with it's dance, most of what I had in trunk had been deleted.

I already sent the SysAdmin a mail to tell him that full checkouts fail after fetching a couple hundred files: "connection reset by peer".

I used to really _like_ Subversion. It's always a tragedy when a loving relationship is on the rocks.

Business Depot in Portland has laser printers that cost less than the complete set of inks for my ancient Canon. I completely replaced its inks only to find that it doesn't work anymore.

I mostly need black and white prints. If I need color all get them done at FedEx office.

I want a laser printer that will last until the heat death of the Universe.

TNX!

Well, I asked NCommander nicely if I could be fired for triggering up some SJW butthurt this week but it seems being freed from doing most of the adminy and codey stuff around here to return to a leisurely life of porn, fishing, and vidya is not in the cards at the moment. Ah well. When life hands you lemons, bean the people who annoy you in the face with them.

In India, entry-level job applicants are called "Freshers". Knowing that will help me find more Indian companies to list at Soggy Jobs.

From its very start *no one* had a clue as to why I refered to "Computer Jobs".

There are two reasons: one is that most computer programmers do _not_ work in the computer business; they write "in-house apps" for other kinds of companies such as financial firms, medical companies as well as government agencies.

Admittedly my original title "The Global Computer Employer Index" did a poor job of conveying that message. Just today I renamed it to The Global Computer Industry Index. On the geographic pages I use titles like Find a Computer Industry Job in Goregaon, India.

(Doubtlessly to the dismay of tens of millions of women, Indian employers are permitted to specify "Male Candidates Only" in their job descriptions; it's that way in the Philippines too.)

The other reason is that I don't just list corporate software job portals but also hardware - for electrical engineers, electronics technicians, electronic test engineers and the like.

Despite that intent I list very, very few hardware companies for the simple reason that I didn't know how to look for them. It's easy to find publicly-traded companies like Intel, AMD and Apple but how I do find the small ones?

Really I _still_ don't know.

So I'm listing the big hardware companies, at least for now. Over the last few days I've been working on ARM Holdings, which designs the microprocessors that are found in most mobile devices as well as embedded systems such as my Antminer L3+ LiteCoin mining rig.

Also until recently I really didn't list any multinationals because I found the prospect of listing all their locations quite intimidating. This because I would have to create new pages for each new country, state or province, maybe the counties and the cities just so I could list _one_ company's office.

To my delight I've found the work of building out my site to have gotten far easier as I've progressed: if I find just _one_ tech company in Oula, I'm likely to find lots more; I've been devoting steadily-fewer hours to creating totally new HTML files as well as finding the companies to list.

It is quite helpful that some multinationals make it really easy to find a list of _all_ their locations. Oracle is the easiest but ARM Holdings isn't so bad. Rather than adding one new city then returning to ARM's careers portal, I open a text file to record just the names of the cities then scan through all the listings for tech jobs.

Progressively,
