Further to that, my feed have been filled with Certification posts. Folks would boast about their 3 hour Certification courses with long cringe posts! And LinkedIn would not stop it, because they need to sell LinkedIn Learning!


Honestly, if it were just people bragging about how they took a 3 hour class and got a useless certification, I don't think it would bother me. LinkedIn markets itself as a glorified resume, and it's pretty common for people to fluff up their meaningless certs.

I just feel like there should be somewhat of a boundary between personal and professional life. There are things I would say to my friends that I wouldn't tell anyone in charge of giving me money, at least not directly, and I feel like LinkedIn (purposefully or otherwise) is actively trying to erode that boundary. It's horrible.


There's not much I would post on Facebook that would cause me heartburn if a potential employer were to see it. (And most of my Facebook friends would be profoundly uninterested in most tech topics I would post on.)

But, yeah, I keep my LinkedIn--to the degree I use it at all--very anodyne except to the degree you have relatively extreme opinions on specific tech topics.


I don't have a facebook, but I don't think I post anything that's likely to get me fired to any social media. However, there's sort of a difference between "not being fired" and "being hired".

My political opinions are pretty normal (basically typical American lefty), and if my employer were to find a blog post I wrote about universal healthcare or something it's doubtful that they'd fire me. That's a little different than me plastering "BIDEN 2024!!!" all over my resume, and that's why I utterly hate LinkedIn.


anodyne, great word


It's a perfectly cromulent word


Typo: It's Daniel Kahneman and not David Kahnemann.


thanx, I fixed that.


I always feel forgetting the equations and algorithms, and I think this thing would help.

Has anyone found the app permissions being reset for many apps abruptly? I just faced it!


Does anyone have any resources saying what all impacts this legislation would bring and how it would change current online applications?

How can anyone think that while uploading a new set of content on a website, it would be an instant job to compare against all other legal content already uploaded?


You just have to build a copyright system before you can display it publicly.

Can't afford it? Too bad, that's the fun of this law and why it should be abolished.


Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albon is a light-weight book with a genre of life-advice(I would not use the word self-help here). I think it would suit you.


Honestly, I loved this! Thank you for posting.
