You should hate it as a manager. You’re filtering out every single quality candidate because only a deranged nut job would even consider such an unhinged request. Submitting a video, in and of itself, proves they are not worth hiring.
You don’t need to process every candidate. Just randomly take 5%, or 1%, or .001%, and do a real hiring process. Anything at all is better than requiring a video application.
The scary part is presenting it as a fucking privacy feature with no consequences.
Your company requiring video submissions for a fucking application is the easiest “this company is batshit insane and there’s no possibility working for them could ever be worth it” red flag I’ve ever seen.
(Humans behavious still mostly eludes me though, totally illogical 🤨)
We’re not rational, but there are patterns. If you’re willing to do some reading Thinking: Fast and Slow is beefy, but helps to show some of the patterns of irrationality in a structured way, from one of the leading experts on human behavior. If that’s too much, Thinking in Bets is a nice taster that still is well backed by much of the same research, but is shorter and more accessible.
None.
The actual “single core”, “multi-core” were basically fine last I was aware, but they went so far into apeshit meltdown about the fact that AMD was offering better value than Intel with Ryzen (which is kind of back and forth since, but AMD is the reason I could get a 16 (real, capable of demanding single core loads too) core for $500 a couple years ago, not too long after Intel was selling 6 cores for more than that.) that it undermined everything else.
Anyways, UB’s owner didn’t like that AMD had good shit so he kept changing the “gaming/desktop/whatever” grade formulas to tilt the comparisons to Intel using more and more hilarious mechanisms. It started with a reasonable “you don’t really benefit from games past 4/6/8 cores” and de-emphasizing super high core counts that hadn’t really been an issue before, but it quickly degraded into obviously cheating hard by whatever means necessary to punish AMD, with even worse diatribes in the descriptions to match.
Absolutely.
They’re exactly the same as the audio being out of sync. It literally makes me want to puke.
If you’re actually hearing impaired I’ll probably tolerate it for you. Though realistically we just won’t watch anything together.
Otherwise I hate you for asking. Nothing makes a show/movie unwatchable more than having the text of what a character is going to say shoved in my face before they say it. I’d rather get kicked in the balls repeatedly than watch shit with subtitles. It’s less severe torture.
If they were to do that, and have cross platform purchases/saves (provided I could make it work reasonably on Linux), I would be way more likely to think about buying games from them.
The PS5 is a nice piece of hardware. You can do a lot of stuff better on PC, but the loading tech is still legit. But I’m not buying multi platform games on PS5 over Steam for a bunch of reasons (steam deck being the biggest, steam input being another, just generally the fact that my PC gives me a lot more future options and modding potential).
Even if they did the UWP locked file shit, being able to bring games from PS5 to Steam Deck to desktop would make them pretty competitive. And I’d start using them regardless for the library I already have.
The “key” is the mapping of cipher alphabet to message alphabet.
There has to be a secret to be cryptography. The meaning has to be hidden without the secret information (though primitive/weak attempts can have a small enough search space to be brute forced). But the content being hidden without that information is the entirety of what the word means.
That’s a terrible definition, but “codes” is doing the heavy lifting.
It is not a code, in that definition, if it does not require knowledge of a key to decode.
It is literally impossible for anything that doesn’t have a secret key to qualify as cryptography. That is the entire defining trait.
Because it’s a giant one.
There is no valid interpretation of cryptography that resembles the way you defined it in any way.
You provided a definition that doesn’t even loosely resemble the correct one.
There’s no need to use words you don’t understand, especially when they’re wildly unrelated to whatever you’re saying. They just add confusion.
If the word “cryptography” here is what throws anyone off, it’s not some advanced field of study, it just refers to the physical manifestation of messaging, which a child can get behind.
No it doesn’t. Cryptography is specifically encoding messages in a way that is hard for someone without the specific secret key to decode, even if they know the methodology.
“Controlled demolitions take weeks of planning” because under normal circumstances, the risk of waiting is not that high. That doesn’t mean that subject matter experts aren’t capable of making an intelligent plan in a short period when a building is catastrophically damaged in heavily populated area where waiting can very easily result in more damage and more risk of casualties.
As for “melting iron”, if you’re talking eyewitnesses before the demolition, they have no idea what was melted. If you’re talking after, no shit they used demolition-grade explosives. It was a fucking skyscraper in the middle of a massively populated city that wasn’t stable. It had to come down.
I don’t understand ever under any circumstances having your phone on anything but vibrate.
I don’t mind fulfilled by Amazon. I’m selective, but there’s still value there.
If I could permanently remove everything that isn’t in an Amazon warehouse from showing up in search results the platform would be way less annoying, though. De-emphasizing that nonsense is a huge value add as far as I’m concerned.
It’s CBS. The NFL doesn’t run the broadcast. But not Taylor Swift lol. I don’t think she even did anything to draw attention to it besides existing.
I actually enjoyed seeing her in the stands, though. She was very clearly emotionally invested in the game, and I thought her reactions were genuine and added to the broadcast.
Because she’s that popular.
I’m willing to bet there were a comfortable 7 figures worth of extra viewers just because she was at the game.
This is a lot of words to say nothing.
If you don’t immediately throw someone who doesn’t flush off of your property to never return, you’re nasty too.
