Ah, yes, thanks - good to remember some folks think women stop having “value” at 30ish, and still, somehow, feel comfortable posting that publicly.

You absolutely trashed it in your first sneering, shitty swipe about “culture”. You don’t get to make comments like that and then whine about “policing” like a four year-old caught in the cookie jar.

100%. Interviews should be a two-way filter. I’m sympathetic to unemployed-and-just-need-something, but also: boy are there a lot of companies hiring data engineers.

Must be nice to only work with solid, well-documented data models. That sounds like snark, I guess, but I’m actually jealous. AI would choke on the last few “DWs” I’ve used.

The idea that that’s an offense worthy of execution is utterly antithetical to any conceivable value you might say this country was based on. What a shameful, repugnant comment. What an abject failure of anything one could call “education”.

I dunno, I think a significant amount of fault lies with the developers who were either too stupid and too bad at software to create a tool that couldn’t create CSAM, or were too vile to enable the restriction. I also think people who defen
