For me, the cover letter is the first filter. Did they write a reasonably good and unique one? Does it address the job description? Do they explain how past experience prepares them and/or do they explain how this would be a mutually beneficial experience?
- Comment on How come butthole scratches doesn't get infected with poop bacteria ? 1 week ago:
They do. It’s why you have an immune system. You’re literally being attacked millions of times per day but keep it in check.

I have hired hundreds and always read the cover letter. Not everyone takes the easy way out.
- Comment on YSK that hand sewing is a stupid cheap hobby to get into and reduces your impact on the environment 2 weeks ago:
They tried to teach me to sew in high school and I immediately knew that I was shit at it and ran far, far away.
- Comment on YouTube is now flagging accounts on Premium family plans that aren't in the same household 2 weeks ago:
You don’t get ads. You pay less than double what two premiums cost and your household can share.

The paywall is JavaScript but the content is still in plaintext below. The crawlers don’t read the JavaScript.

Would you believe that it is the favorite “Mexican” restaurant in the country?
- Comment on Why do narcissists have such fragile egos? 2 weeks ago:
Narcissism is not neurodivergence, it is a personality disorder. There is a great difference between them.
- Comment on Why do narcissists have such fragile egos? 2 weeks ago:
The fragility is part of the narcissism. You don’t get one without the other. In the end, narcissism is an extreme projection of insecurity, which is why “narcissistic rage” is a thing.
- Comment on Indoor lettuce growing in 3D printed pots 2 weeks ago:
Now THAT’s a good solution, so much better than trying to do it in one of those silly pod setups that don’t give enough room for growth.

Thinks he’s Elon and can just go do whatever. We’ll later hear about this company hiring people back, collapsing, etc.

lol nice one
- Comment on Chemical companies lobbying MPs not to ban Pfas 2 weeks ago:
LOL how do you make an argument that essentially goes “please let us continue to pollute so that we can make more money”?
- Comment on Microsoft fires 2 employees after they broke into president's office 2 weeks ago:
Honestly, did they think there would not be repercussions? This isn’t a university sit-in or occupying city hall.
- Comment on Let Google know what you think about their proposed restrictions on sideloading Android apps. - Android developer verification requirements [Feedback Form] 3 weeks ago:
No humans are involved in reviewing these. They go into the memory hole and that’s that.
- Comment on Let Google know what you think about their proposed restrictions on sideloading Android apps. - Android developer verification requirements [Feedback Form] 3 weeks ago:
This is silly. Google doesn’t give a single fuck. This decision will make money for key players and that’s the end of the conversation.
- Comment on Spotifies come and Spotifies go, but that folder of badly-sorted MP3s will still be there in the 2050s. 3 weeks ago:
Everything I could find that was of higher quality, I downloaded over time. I have some bootlegs though along with some music I’ve found from no other sources. I’ll never replace some of it, but that’s fine.
- Comment on Spotifies come and Spotifies go, but that folder of badly-sorted MP3s will still be there in the 2050s. 3 weeks ago:
I can’t possibly calculate how many hours I spent curating my music library. I don’t use it anymore but you better bet that I still have it saved to the cloud and locally and it’s there in case I need it.
- Comment on 4chan refuses to pay UK Online Safety Act fines, asks Trump admin to intervene 3 weeks ago:
I felt this way back in the late 90s when states started requiring sales tax for online transactions. It felt stupid to me that a transaction that occurs in some other state should have to include taxes for the place where you live.

I hadn’t realized that that was a thing, amazing!
- Comment on 4chan refuses to pay UK Online Safety Act fines, asks Trump admin to intervene 3 weeks ago:
What’s changing and that has conservatives in fear is that the US is losing control of the internet as other countries begin to enforce their own vision for it. It’s why there is so much anger recently from the Trump admin about taxes and controls on social media.
- Comment on 4chan refuses to pay UK Online Safety Act fines, asks Trump admin to intervene 3 weeks ago:
That’s exactly how the EU keeps levying fines on Meta and Xitter. If you make your service available in a country, you have to follow their laws. If you don’t want to do that, then you can’t allow people from that country to use your site. This really isn’t controversial.
- Comment on 4chan refuses to pay UK Online Safety Act fines, asks Trump admin to intervene 3 weeks ago:
No, you can definitely block entire countries.
- Comment on Polymer P0rn 3 weeks ago:
I think the joke for the top two might be mixed up.
- Comment on 4chan refuses to pay UK Online Safety Act fines, asks Trump admin to intervene 3 weeks ago:
If you offer a service in a country you are subject to their laws.
- Comment on 'Where's your America First?': US teenager stuck in Israeli jail for six months 3 weeks ago:
That’s because Israel is the spoiled younger sibling of the US and the US is willing to beat up the people that Israel bullies. This won’t go on forever, we’re experiencing empire collapse. Eventually their shield will disappear and both countries will be forced to answer for their actions.
