When we were looking a few years ago, the only thing under $250k was a house built in 1897 that shared the property line with a hoarder shed that had a family of raccoons going in and out while we were looking at it in the middle of the day.

It’s either that, the $500 fixer-upper, or the $800k new construction. And I’m in the Midwest, not even in a high COL area.

If he’s active duty Army, try firstnamelastname@usa.army.mil firstname.lastname@usa.army.mil. if it’s a somewhat common name try adding .1 after the name and incrementing up if necessary.

As a General, he’s likely in charge of some really big organization, like a whole military base or CCMD (combatant command). Try looking through the emails you get to see if you can find some context for where he might work, then search for an about page or contact page on the public web. You won’t get him directly but someone who knows how to route the information up to him.

Same as people stay in unfulfilling, shitty jobs that pay less, just so they don’t risk losing health insurance or other “benefits.”

What’s he going to do next, go after white people who are simply proud of their heritage?

That’s got to be it. Cloud compute is expensive when you’re not being funded in Azure credits. One the dust settles from the AI bubble bursting, most of the AI we’ll see will probably be specialized agents running small models locally.

Knowing Texas, they’ll probably try to privatize it

Looks like they’re replacing parts of the hiring process, too. Nearly every single job description and recruiter message looks AI-generated, my resume is at the mercy of some HR algorithm, and who knows what they’re cooking up for actual interviews.

But they still expect us to specially craft an individual resume and cover letter for each job we apply to? With all this corporate wordsmithing that only ever applies to writing those resumes? Fuck that. Hey ChatGPT, here’s a job posting, match it up with my resume and generate a friendly cover letter. The whole process has become so formulaic with corporate-speak that whatever LLMs spit out are way better than anything we’d be able to come up with on our own.

More like, how did they go that long without finding out?

Just call it raw and they’ll be into it

I know there’s a big knee-jerk anti-AI sentiment on Lemmy, but some of these points are perfectly legitimate. Not the ones seeking emotional validation or trying to create social connections, but automating the tweaking of your resume and cover letters for all these companies that expect personalized engagement, absolutely. I’ve got extremely limited cognitive bandwidth and I’ve got too much to do besides branding myself and making you and your company feel special. If capitalism loves automation so much, then let’s automate this bullshit.

I’m just waiting for this AI bubble to burst so we can finally move away from soullessly imitating human social patterns and toward the things AI is actually useful for: pattern recognition.

Just forwarded this to my wife. She’ll probably be interested.

More research is showing that neurodivergent girls and women go undiagnosed more often than their make counterparts, whether that’s because of symptoms presenting differently or societal expectations forcing them to self-regulate in a way that’s more “socially acceptable.”

Think of the selection criteria as filling in gaps in knowledge instead of just widely excluding whole populations.

Slopsquatting is already taking off

The horny just adds credibility

Why not just take the 15? It’s so much shorter, and you have a couple guns to protect yourself in case anything pops up, right?

Right?

God bless Dolly.

This meme predates Facebook by at least a decade.

Looks like there’s a lesson here.

Mine said I was 0.2% Mongolian so now I endearingly tell stories of my Grandpa Khan.

ONCE AND FOR ALL!
