I switched all my domains to Porkbun. No way I'm hanging out in Squarespace land.

I use it when I'm traveling and am on insecure WiFi.

However, it doesn't let you pick your egress location,.so if you're trying to get to PornHub in Texas, it won't help.

Again, you're putting words in my mouth. I'm done engaging with you as I don't think you're conversing in good faith.

No one said anything is beneath senior employees.

It's a lost opportunity when you, a staff engineer, spend your time doing something that a junior engineer could do -- instead of doing a task a junior engineer can't do.

It's faulty, short-sighted logic though. If every company trained juniors, only for them to jump ship in two years, there'd be a pool of trained juniors to hire from. Yes you wouldn't get your investment out of that particular person, but you'd be hiring someone else's investment.

Beyond that, there's work that is better suited to more junior employees because it's literally a waste of the senior employees' skills.

Too many industries are shitting on entry level employees now.. They're easy targets for layoffs and easy targets for AI, apparently. Now they're already complaining about the lack of quality talent.

The Great Resignation is effectively over. We’re now in the Great Talent Stagnation, where employers’ biggest concern is the lack of qualified applicants

If you don't invest in the next set of entry-level employees, you won't have the next set of qualified employees.

What is missing is that the podcast originally claimed it was entirely written and generated by AI. They only changed the story when they were sued.

And I don't think any of their nude photos are appropriate for academic papers (unrelated to nudity research) either?

Yeah. The arbitration section of the agreement specifically says it only applies to US residents.

Strong names are great, but (sometimes) mentioning the type of variable in the name is redundant.

I'm more concerned that the company decided it was OK to meld the "From:" line of her email (asking for support) into her profile. If they think that's an appropriate way to handle PII, I don't trust them.
