Guys. I feel bad. I'm not a good Software Engineer. I mean, there's a few guys between 19 and 24 that are gonna rewrite the entire social security codebase in like 4 months. Obviously I'm not trying hard enough otherwise I'd be able to do that too

I donβt know what has happened, but my two cents is that everyone needs to go outside and touch grass and then talk to a human face to face. Every day
Otherwise everyone is gonna become perma-weird
This is one of the most bananas things Iβve ever seen. And thatβs impressive considering, ya know, JavaScriptβ¦

Just saw a post on LinkedIn that said "If you have a typo in your resume, you're not getting a call. Sorry not sorry."
What if the job posting has three typos though? Does that cancel the one typo? Do they get an auto call back for having fewer typos? Where is the power org chart for typos?

The joke of this thing to me is that if you lower employee wages by $4 an hour, many of these places will still go under.
You picked one of the hardest industries to run a small business, and then complain when the difficulty setting's too high? Don't waste my time.
How long until LinkedIn is nothing but green check emojis?

A friend of mine, a Senior Backend Engineer, got laid off. Applied to a company despite only meeting 65% of the qualifications, no referral, no cover letter.
Hired. Only 30 days unemployed.
Apply anyway. Itβs a wish list. You donβt know what a company actually needs.
Do you guys remember when Amazon had stores using AI you could just walk out of without paying and it turned out the AI was just a bunch of dudes in a room watching the people?
How much of AI is still just that?

Explain this to me:
Everyone hates random ass music over videos right?
So why is it still so popular?
Isnβt there a way to punish people who do that in the algorithm?

As someone with 10 years of experience in the restaurant industry, this would cause me to quit. And possibly move.
Maybe thatβs the ideaβ¦
