In general UK police have a higher standard, somewhere around medium. Other bits of Europe are much better, Norway have a higher bar for entry. US is one of the very worst.

Training doesn't equal standards, but is a reasonable indicator of results expectation.

Interesting idea. Could it be used against the police by a criminal to make it harder to arrest though, by threatening to sue?

If LLMs are good enough, then "scan PR for obfuscated backdoors and dangerous code" should be sufficient to reject.

You're just one prompt away from fixing the problem

Probably a memory wipe before the midterms.

Possibly, but I've not personally found jobs through LinkedIn, maybe I'm less tolerant of their site but Monster/Indeed have been much better for me over the course of my career than LinkedIn.

In other words, LinkedIn performed 5% worse than expected because they ruined the site

They took a leaf out of LinkedIn's book, they turned something that was a little useful into something completely useless, and somehow there was a small use for recruiters, who were then milked. Fecebook found a small group to tap, and they're focusing on that, rather than making something culturally useful. There's not a big gap between LinkedIn and Fecebook in this regard, where's the conversation going on?

Both networks could have been happy making money for a long time, instead they wanted to squish everything out of it as quickly as possible.

LOC was a good metric then?

I think there's something more sinister. They know their bubble has burst, so want fewer people to deal with when the bottom line doesn't look so great.

When you cared about product longevity else you spend more time schooling employees than them working, company B down the road that focus on longevity will have a better product, or more products as their time is used more wisely.

Fecebook has lasted a long time considering the dodgy privacy and advertising deals. To be honest, they're on borrowed time so reducing the headcount constructively now achieves maximum shareholder value.

However, if they wanted to be a longer-term platform they should have looked at ways to focus on moderation, both human and AI scoring, rather than label themselves a platform and not moderate. That would encourage people to use their "platform" for communication.

It's 2026 - some years ago I thought that there was a strong chance Fecebook would have usurped email as it seemed more people had accounts than active email. So glad they shot themselves in the foot.

Fecebook enshitified their site and became hostile to their users, but doing so to their employees will have similar predictable results to every future product.

Good luck finding a habitable planet for them
