  • I know quite a few that are using online resources (like LinkedIn/Indeed/etc…). Its not better (arguably worse). Nowadays theres so much AI trying to pull peoples resumes for free to get training data, its just spam (aka Ghost jobs that was discussed in the Post).

    The best interview is one where you know the company, industry, and people working there. So yeah its still mostly word of mouth haha. Thats how I got my last jobs.

    Its so bad. To do the same stuff you did 10 years ago, you need a computer with 4x the specs for Windows 11 + AI chip and everything is a subscription. meanwhile Ive upgraded my linux laptop once and it runs about 10x with the newest of software updates, steam, etc…etc… Libreoffice is much easier to use than MS products now.

    The worst part is you cant opt out of windows AI. It sends your data along no matter what.









  • I think in order for both to work towards a better fediverse, there needs to be a “true” sync. Not like the bridge Bluesky is maintaining, we need something to sync both ways. Even if its just a subset with just public posts to begin with.

    I know a lot of fediverse software has their own API that extends their own functionality beyond the AP protocol, just to make things more complicated :). But it does help with say bookwyrm needs to know something specific from another bookwyrm instance.
