There is still value to cover letters. I worked at a company where we put a very simple prompt in the job req which told the applicant to do something trivial im their cover letter. If they failed to do it, we threw the application away. It was to screen for the most basic skill of observation and to know whether or not the asshole sending in the application had even read the job req, which many folks don't do any more. I'd think we culled 30% of applicants from the go.

I've interviewed hundreds and hired probably a hundred people during my career thus far. I have never, not once, asked about grades. I literally do not give a fuck about GPA. School is to make sure you know how to show up, follow some directions, and fill out paperwork on time. There are intelligence and problem solving skills, and then there's academic "skill" of getting good grades. I don't give a fuck if you got an A. I have known many people who had straight A's but were utterly useless in the real world. School is not the real world.

Someone's bad at math. Thirteen thirty second periods makes for not five minutes

not entirely true. I used to think about how disappointing the devs on COD must have been when their work was co-opted by bong ripping roller coaster assault rifle skins and all sorts of other assclownery. Then I quit playing j It and will miss the old days, but am not going back to that trash

Never heard of them. New games are all ass

Assembly techs in bumfuckistan are not the engineers designing the shit in california

Another EV company who has a product which is already too fucking expensive is gonna add a bunch of shit nobody wants

It means "fuck you, oops the money is gone"

Nobody wants a $1600 piece of shit phone. They definitely won't want the same undifferentiated trash "hot new" phone for $2000 with the exact same specs. Thanks AI

GTT on PLA is like 130ÂF. It gets hotter than 130F under the hood of a car, or in the cabin of a car on a sunny day. Would it make a good airbox? No.

That's not broke, that's killed off

No, fuck the article writer. The challenge with windows 11 is that it doesnt fucking work, and users who rely on computers to do business and make money cannot accept such a pile of shit being rammed down their throats.

Looking forward to the "AI bubble popped, companies scrambling to make consumer product" headlines soon

Deprecated. Give it two weeks and they'll kill it.

Is this the same napster as the rebranded rhapsody streaming service? I was a long time customer, but their catalog recently evaporated to virtually nothing, eliminating the point of paying for the service. Fuck'em either way...
