  • Sounds like you are either not the target market or have no idea how to use LinkedIn. Properly used, you as a candidate have an arsenal of info you wouldn’t otherwise have, and the same for the company who can see your posts, your connections, your job history. It’s professional Facebook, all the grownups use it and it’s not just about connecting with people you don’t care about.

    This is about building connections you can use later in life. Trust me, connect with that fuckwit John from sales, cause in 5 years he’ll be the guy that can connect you with the recruiter at the company you’ve applied with. You don’t need to like him or be best friends. This is business, not the playground.






  • Gah, as I reentered the dating world after a long (looooong) marriage, I experienced this and I am not looking forward to more of this. Glad to see someone else who has sisters and heard “the talk from mom” but at my age (40s), I should not be teaching you the very easy and basic maintenance of your vagina. As we were fooling around I could smell her more and more, and I was polite to the gal and tried to encourage her to use the lady wash setting on my bidet, “it’s a game changer”… “no thanks”. Sigh… sex was mediocre and I was done with that relationship.

    My Ex-wife was never taught proper hygiene and sex was a shunned topic at her home. So when i finally broached the “smell” a few years in (20s), it was a rough time and required counseling for us both. Bidet seats about 18 years ago after a trip to Italy were a marriage/sex saver… well, somewhat. Clearly i’m divorced now, but thats a different issue.



  • Not an original idea by far, but I was chatting it up with a few friends recently about this and we thought a civic duty term made far more sense (think jury duty). So much needs to be fixed in the process, like the bill riders addons (a horrible scourge to our political system) and lobbyist (scum). But imagine you were picked (randomly) to serve for 3 year stints, with those getting picked for a 2nd and maybe even 3rd term, serving as some Senior politician. Clearly it needs much more thought, but far better potential because you have to participate and accountable.

    Before you knock it down, think about the intelligence required here. Boebert is an absolute moron. Bills before the system need to be something the average person can understand (legal verbiage is such a pointless waste and almost unnecessary). You would need to participate in collaboration with others, understand how to be honest and forthcoming with your goals.

    We can’t hold Politicians accountable (not the system today) and this could be an answer.


  • Don’t worry, every company was hiring anyone with DevOps on their resume just a couple years back. Now its AI. I’ve been on this train for far too long, and saw places that said they sold “X” and had no one on the team that even knew it. My last place asked me to demo a devops pipeline that was “zero touch” for developers (for a client) and were in shock with my demo “why don’t we sell this?!”… I’ve been here for 2 years, delivering this easy, low hanging fruit and you want to sell the concept as a service? Sigh….

    I’ve added AI to my pipeline, for “code improvement analysis and quantitative risk”, it’s just as amazing as before. It’s just a shiny feature in the grand scheme of what AI could really do in real fields (medical, financials, etc), but it looks good on my resume and i’m getting hits on my linkedin, daily.

    Lets just hope this time around, companies do some due diligence on hiring and we’re not where we are now, whenever the AI bubble pops. Hahahahahaha
