ChatGPT.
i recently started my job search, and asked it for a list of top 10 companies with recent funding announcements and remote work that fit my profile.
I expanded on this a few times, reached out to their career pages and recruitment. Landed 2 interviews and I’m in the final round for both. It took about 35 applications.
It also helped me tune my resume and cover letter. Be sure to put things through an AI detector to avoid being filtered out for sounding like AI

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Completely Lost on What Path to Take as an unemployed SWE
19·6 months agoDon’t be afraid to take unskilled jobs to slow the financial bleed while you continue your search.
The key to finding a Job is absolutely networking. Take a look for local SW groups, defcon groups, hacker spaces, start up scenes, etc.
I’ve received my last few jobs through networking. I’ve been fortunate enough to not need to job search in a number of years.
Once your settled in a field, network network network.
But you need to know what field to do it in first.
You should broaden your searches. Both by location and vocation.
By the sounds of it you would be a good fit in any operational, logistical, or managerial role. See what remote opportunities there are Canada wide.
Try applying to NOCs and SOCs

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How long was your longest grieving period after a breakup?
7·8 months agoOn average it takes 18 months to grieve a loss. Divorces are no exception.
I’ve gone through 1 divorce and some long term relationship breakups, pretty close to when loved ones die.
Eventually it’s replaced by new automated defenses and behaviors. Hopefully not too unhealthy.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your personal definition of "Productivity" and what do you think is its end goal?
9·8 months agoProductivity is a measure of how much you can get done in a block of time. It doesn’t have anything to do with end goals.
It’s a bit of a silly question like asking what fuel mileage has to do with where you drive to.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What band/stars are meh when listening to on your phone, but sweep you off your feet when they perform live?
6·8 months agoGwar. I hate that kind of music tbh, but saw them at a festival and it was one of the best shows I’ve seen.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Have you or someone you know ever fallen for a scam? What happened?
5·9 months agoIt’s a sophisticated scam where they take you for all you have.
- hire models to talk to guys on tinder
- convince them to download a fake crypto app you created
- have them invest a small amount and let them take out more than they put in to gain trust
- convinced them to invest it all
- don’t let them take it out when they “win”, tell them they need to pay escrow fees
- don’t let them take it, say there’s problems with the escrow service, and make them pay more to fix it
- don’t let them take it out, say the minimum transfer went up, make them invest more to take it out
- when they call out it’s a scam, have the actress say she’s being held captive until she scams enough money to buy back her life/family/whatever and convince the victim to pay it
- when they realize that’s still the scam, tell them you’re sorry and they can get in on it to make their money back. Have them wire you money for lessons and access. Don’t deliver

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Can I use fail2ban like a pi-hole LLM scrapers?
71·10 months agoFail2ban is not a static security policy.
It’s a dynamic firewall. It ties logs to time boxed firewall rules.
You could auto ban any source that hits robots.txt on a Web server for 1h for instance. I’ve heard AI data scrapers actually use that to target big data rather than respect web server requests.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are you just done with after giving it so many chances?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are you just done with after giving it so many chances?
262·1 year agoDumb TVs exist, and they’re 5x the price of smart TVs.
Ads and data mining subsidizes the hardware cost. If you want cheap TVs you get spyware and ads.

This pod cast is about someone who went through something similar, and ended up prosecuting.
See how negatively it affected their lives and decide if involving the police is best for you. I hope you agree that it is.
You may be preventing future crimes by stopping the behaviour early, even though it can be socially awkward to navigate this with a friend.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is sex really that awesome? am I really missing out?
8·1 year agoAs good as eating.
Most are like junk food Few are like fine dining And a few are like eating food you hate at a friend’s house but you’re trying to be polite.
Overall I’d recommend experiencing it, but if you don’t or can’t no biggy.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•what are these rubber holes on the back of the pc case?
72·1 year agoThose are rubber grommets. They’ll protect cables from wearing on metal that pass through the case.
Likely for things with hard wired controllers, like fan controllers or led lighting. You can hang the controller outside of the case in the back where nobody will see it.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What popular product do you think is modern day snakeoil?
10·1 year agoI have a blue light filter on my glasses. I opted in because I sometimes use screens close to bed time for work.
I’m not going to tell you they work better then a placebo, but they work as good as one, and that’s all I need.
They are 100% yellow tinted. Anyone who tells you they don’t block blue light is a liar.
I wrote an algorithm that could detect top talker trends from network flows. At the time it could reliably work up to 40Gbps depending on flow sample rate and your definition of reliable.
Not sure if it’s in use anymore.
