Those are multiplayer games. Totally different.

I spent about a year looking for a job (senior management in cybersecurity), and had basically ZERO luck until I got wise and did the following. Had a new role within 4 months afterwards.

  1. Take your resume, and expand it 10-20x into a massive document listing every single project, accomplishment, or skill you can think of that could ever be potentially relevant in a new role.
  2. Every time you apply to a new job, copy the job posting into a ChatGPT conversation, and have it edit your resume to a 1-2 page document that only includes the experience most relevant to the job posting, and to rewrite sentences to use the exact terminology from the job posting where appropriate.
  3. Once you have the custom resume, use ChatGPT to generate a custom cover letter to include as well.

These 2 changes will cause your resume to get assigned a higher "relevance score" by the AI tool their HR or recruiting team uses to weed through the 400+ applications they receive, which means you'll be at the top of the list of names that gets delivered to first human in the process (the recruiter).

You'll actually start getting callbacks and phone screens at that point, which gives you a fighting chance. The rest is up to you.

There are paid services that'll do this for you (like Teal), but you can do it yourself and with more control as long as you have access to ChatGPT. If you can generate a completely customized resume and cover letter in less than 2 minutes, you can pump out 10 high-quality applications in less than half an hour per day.

Edit: I see you're getting a 40% response rate. You may be setting your sights too low if that remains consistent. If you're applying for roles that are a solid step up form where you're at, you would expect closer to a 10% response rate.

When we say "politicians who don't give a shit about you", does that include 80+ year old men who are willing to throw our democracy away as long as they do their "goodest job"? All because they are addicted to power and can't imagine a world where someone is more electable than they are, despite overwhelming statistical evidence to the contrary?

And when we say "career politicians", does that include people that were elected to the Senate 60 years ago when they were in their 20s?

It's #Joever. Time to accept it and move on. Bending over backwards to defend him doesn't make you a hero, it makes you a useful idiot.

I was just quoting the actual laws... As a concealed carry permit holder it's a pretty important responsibility to know how/where it's legal to store your loaded handgun.

Pure copium.

I just used ChatGPT to write a 500-line Python application that syncs IP addresses from asset management tools to our vulnerability management stack. This took about 4 hours using AutoGen Studio. The code just passed QA and is moving into production next week.

Read the article - the headline is not accurate at all. Nowhere does Biden actually call for a ceasefire. They merely mention ongoing negotiations related to one.

Here's the ACTUAL definition of racism:

"prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism by an individual, community, or institution against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized."

Please get out of here with that "Only people in the dominant group can be racist" mumbo jumbo. That may be the more typical case, but it's not the only one. You (and the author of the sociology textbook you quoted) are EXACTLY the type of people OP was talking about, and that's why you're being downvoted here.

Maybe you missed the point of my comment. I agree with you that Confederate statues erected during the civil rights movement are an affront to everything we stand for as a nation. I agree that they should be torn down wherever they exist.

I also don't understand what any of that has to do with a photo of unmarked Confederate graves. Or how it would in any way justify pissing on them.

[-] blaine@lemmy.ml 14 points 9 months ago

I don't see any statues in this photo. Nobody here is talking about celebrating the Confederate soldiers, only suggesting that their graves shouldn't be pissed on.

Same here. Call me old-fashioned, but the only part of my computer I have any interest in looking at is whatever is being rendered on the monitor.

I don't need any LEDs in my PC because the case is a black metal box with no side panels. Any time/effort/money spent on making a PC "look cool" is time/effort/money that should have been spent making it perform better.
