I suspect part of it may be due to resources. The far right commentator has a pretty solid career path ahead of them, and support from large backers who find that far right beliefs don't threaten their profits. As a result, someone on

The question then becomes "how are applicants getting to the phone screening to begin with?" Because from what I can tell, it seems like a complete toss up whether a qualified/unqualified applicant will even get that far, let

Makes sense. Seen an awful lot of jobs on these sites come up time and time again, and it always felt rather suspicious how often that happened. If a job can't be filled within a year or three, that's a pretty good sign that the c

They definitely do. On both Twitter and Meta related products, posts with links in them get heavily downranked in the algorithm. It's why so many influencers have the link in the first reply instead. And yeah, it's definitely a ba

I do understand you there, and think AI is a bit overblown. A lot of use cases for it seem to be more about using AI for AI's sake, not because it really revolutionises anything. But at the same time, I don't think Hacker News is

Well, I think a few possible ways would be to do the following: 1. Fix filtering/search systems so they're better at identifying relevant technologies and jobs. The amount of times I've searched for say, 'React Developer

Anyone that doesn't get hired at the first company they apply for? $20 isn't much if it's a single application, but I suspect most employees need many hundreds of applications to find a company that'll hire them. Even mo

I know that feeling all too well. There's an Australian guy with a very similar email address that keeps entering it incorrectly, and I end up with the promo emails for these accounts. And because some of them are geolocked to Australi

Definitely the anonymous username where possible. There are exceptions here and there (well, mostly LinkedIn and job hunting sites), but for the most part I prefer the username. There are a few reasons for this: 1. My username is actually l

In a sense, I can definitely see something like this being popular. We've already got things like virtual friends/assistants/romantic partners built using AI systems and bots, and this is kinda just the next level of that. I

Hard to say. On the one hand, there's a lot of front end work that AI could simplify or automate, since a fair amount of it is just boilerplate (and the kind that's heavily represented in their dataset). If you want a simple React

The question of course is how well that level of quality will hold up now that more and more of the internet is AI generated, and said AI generated content is being sourced for said AI tools. It feels like our choices are either to only get

What's more, developer tools are misleadingly difficult. Put simply, it's easy to think that creating developer tools is going to be a winning formula for a company/startup. After all, you're probably a developer, and yo

Uh, do online content creators count for this? Because an awful lot of popular YouTube/TikTok/Instagram/whatever accounts would probably fit a similar profile. Small team, perhaps even just one person, but million of viewers

Just gonna point out that the Nintendo going after fanworks bit is a tad blown out of proportion, especially online. They're definitely known for being way too heavy handed (especially compared to the likes of Sega), but they're n

It should be illegal for any company to rely on AI or automation to handle legal risks, especially without any human driven support to fall back on. The fact we're handling over things this serious to unreliable and poorly configured s

Oh I know this feeling all too well. Still got some projects in limbo after a decade or so that I feel I should finish soon, but which I never get around to. And I get it. It's probably best to call it quits on many projects like this.

Unfortunately the answer is yes. If a video has a vertical resolution and is under 3 minutes (previously 1 minute), YouTube will automatically treat it as a short now. This basically means every video related to a DS or 3DS game, or recorde

You know, whenever I see stuff like this or the Deep Into YouTube subreddits, it always makes me wonder what it must be like for the person that posted the original video. There they are with a video they randomly threw online without any i

Based on my feedback, it seems pretty good. The main improvements I'd recommend are more user interface things, to make the game feel a bit less luck based. For example, there definitely needs to be an indication of which moves are cha

Surprised it's only a fifth. Wonder if that number was higher before sites like Facebook went so hard on the 'real identity' stuff? Still, as the old saying goes, "On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog"

It's also a good example of how public perception and actual stats often differ significantly. If you asked people whether driving or flying were safer, I suspect most would say the former. But statistically speaking, the latter is so

To be honest, I think the biggest difficulty this game faces is that at this level of funding and this time amount of development time, I'm not sure you can actually make something that lives up to the hype. From what I've heard t

Uh, I don't think I've ever really used my real identity online. So I guess every account would be 'fake' under these criteria? Huh, I just find it baffling how few people seem to care the slightest bit about their &#x27

My experience with Reddit is that it still mostly depends on the subreddit. Big subreddits like Ask Reddit or Politics or Technology? Probably a lot of bots and shills, with an equally large amount of low quality content from people that di

Honestly, on a consumer/public interest level, this would be a great thing to see. Google would have to make sure their sites work well on all browsers, since they wouldn't maintain Chrome anymore (or have control over its functio

Haven't finished my side projects. Have a bunch of things in progress (apps, games, videos, etc) that I expected would be done by the end of the year (or close to done), but which are still far from the finish line. Part of this is bec

To be fair, we're already starting to see this without AI. Seems like every company under the sun is looking for 'senior' and 'lead' and 'staff' level employees now, with very little consideration put into

Eh, coding challenges in of themselves are fair enough. What companies really need to understand is that: 1. Said challenges should reflect the work done on a day to day basis, not something completely disconnected from the company as a who
