Of course, how would they know if you don’t list any? Oh, that’s right, PRISM. Fully expect that people who don’t have social media accounts to get accused of having them simply because someone else shares the same name and did say First Amendment protected stuff, like Donald Trump is a terrible fucking president and should be impeached.

Sorry person with the last name Erdude. I guess you aren’t getting into the US now.

Neat data point! I wonder if you changed it to swat or cops if it would have the same

Which makes me wonder, is the training set full of enough trigger discipline to have generated that without prompting? Or did OP go back and add that to the prompt?

it has always looked light blue-ish, like a periwinkle, and gold to me, as well

Like they’ll test me on frameworks or ask me some very archaic questions which is just so frustrating to get through like I haven’t had that much experience that they’re demanding from me even in entry level positions it’s been like that.

Unfortunately, there is probably someone in the same boat as you but has a passion for the field and is able to answer all of their tricky questions. Be the best at what you do. Did you immediately go home after these interviews and study everything they asked that you didn’t know? As an early career technologist, you’ll need to put in a lot of hours studying and applying knowledge. You’re at a disadvantage because you need to prove to them that you will add value to their organization. A CS degree isn’t enough. I’ve interviewed and rejected plenty of MS degree holders too. What matters is demonstrated ability. If you’ve not setup a portfolio of personal projects, or contributions to FOSS, you need to do that. And I’m not talking about vibe coded slop, but your own blood, sweat, and tears. That will demonstrate practical skill. Getting involved in a FOSS community can make a big difference in increasing your network and getting you exposed to others that might be looking for hands. Plus, it is cool and you’ll meet really smart peeps. If you really want to be RIF proof, you need to be really good and have a very good network of people that would love to work with you.

Bro, I can’t be assed to watch a 10 minute video where a third of the content is intro/outro/ad read/filler, even at 2x speed. The information density of a ten minute video by a typical growth hacking youtuber is like aerogel. Why would you want to watch a shitty video, SEO’d to the top of the search results, that will take so long to get you the information you need? That’s the behavior I see from the zoomers. They will actually choose to watch these shitty infotainment videos instead of doing real fucking research.

Title: Deep in Mordor where the shadows lie: Dystopian tales of that time when I sold out to Google

The blog post “Deep in Mordor where the shadows lie: Dystopian tales of that time when I sold out to Google” details the author’s disillusionment with Google after working there in 2007. Initially drawn to Google’s progressive image, they experienced overwork, underpayment, and a stifled culture that belied its promises – particularly regarding “20% time.” Attempts to voice employee dissatisfaction were met with management backlash, exposing a stark divide between full-time staff and exploited temps/contractors. This experience sparked a political awakening, revealing the inherent cruelty of capitalism and the moral compromises of working for a company built on surveillance and profit. The post critiques Google’s practices and, more broadly, systemic injustice, detailing a personal journey of realizing and resisting exploitation.

You’re extra sensitive to reading the minds of non-human animals and can’t turn it off. All the time. Forever.

And that secret third thing: pooping.

to both continue gifting grifting investors and for broader PR.

But maybe it is indeed gifting investors something, say a pile of bullshit

Thanks for the transcription. Adding the text of a screenshot helps out blind peeps online.

Well then I guess it is time for Civil War: Part Deux. And maybe this time, we let Sherman continue his march. Reconstruction was a mistake, and the US is now paying dearly for it some 150+ years after the fact. If we had stamped out the racists then, they wouldn’t be a stupidly large constituency of the redhats now.

“What country before ever existed a century and half without a rebellion? And what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it’s natural manure.”

Even 2km in the rain ain’t that bad. It is also less hassle to walk than get an OV fiets for those 2km.
