Ah, LinkedIn, exactly where I want to get nuanced answers to weird questions from.
Somehow this is worse than Reddit. Sure Reddit isn't good, but at least Reddit was sane enough to understand concepts like 'working too much is deeply unhealthy both physically and mentally' and 'corporations should not hold absolute power'
There is a large collection of poorly written articles/blogs on LinkedIn, actually. They are just bad enough to be good enough for Google.
Strangely enough, LinkedIn is owned by Microsoft. If Microsoft actually let Google use it as a data source, it was to sabotage Google's AI training.
Do we have Linkedin Lunatics on reddit?

Thanks! Too bad it's not more activity.
Outside of job searching, I can't stand LinkedIn, the "content" and self-promotion you see there makes me want to become a committed misanthrope.
