Just a little Easter egg: The guy that does the music for Bluey plays the musician.

I love the concept, but doesn't this just open the same door to bots? Especially if they think they are getting fast tracked. Search LinkedIn for these links -> autofill them.

I do really love your website (at least on mobile): your /r link is the perfect elevator pitch. Your main home page is well designed and provides a lot of details without being overwhelming.

Except that's not the point at all. The US just proved to the world that it doesn't care about competition and it's citizens (in some number) have rejected the concept of "National Security" by switching to a more explicitly Chinese company.

That's a blow to hegemony that will have lasting consequences.

Economics, prestige, etc. It’s worth a lot to China to be competing with the US in social media / Internet stuff. China (and Russia) have been pushing a narrative that the US operates on two sets of rules for them vs everyone else.

The US is happy to invade countries and turns a blind eye to Israeli aggression but Russia or China want to do it and they are met with sanctions etc. The last bastion of American exceptionalism was how it’s a free market and values free speech and free competition.

There was a national security threat but the US walked right into it: China is making a move for the top spot as global hegemon. It’s recruiting other countries to say don’t work with the US, work with us instead. The US flinched. Ralph blew the conch and all the kids just installed RedNote .

Now that we're about to have a trillionaire, billionaire doesn't have the same impact.

I currently live in Vietnam so this is big news here, I think what makes it tougher is that she is so unlikable. She's almost certainly guilty of exactly what she was accused of and despite what she says now when she's facing the death penalty, I think her biggest regret about it is getting caught.

THAT SAID, no person deserves the death penalty and certainly not for stealing money. I also think that she's clearly a talented business woman and she could use those skills she learned embezzling to help the government crack down on corruption. Maybe there's a reason why that's not an option...

I hope she can raise the money to prevent the death penalty because Vietnam didn't deserve to have it's money stolen and she doesn't deserve to die. But if she does I don't think you're going to find many wet eyes here.

I've been working for myself for over a decade doing random projects for clients while also doing my own thing. My resume looks awful and the job market is trash. If be willing to take a job as a jr developer and work my way up (or a sys admin).

I used to run one of the world's largest ebook piracy websites but want to put that life behind me. Recently work came across my desk to create tens of thousands of accounts on a well respected website so they could more easily scrape it.

I just want a traditional job, but I also want to support my family and $4000 for a months work

I think part of the problem is if they provide a game, even for free, then they are responsible for the security of that game. Even if not legally, they don't want an article saying "unreal hacked by Ransomware people infecting anyone who joined a public server, people could download the game on the Epic store for free"

At least if a third party provides it then it's not really an official copy of the game.

I would have it set so you can either blacklist or whitelist wifi connections. EG if I'm at home, I might want to make it enable but otherwise let me use my phone. Or maybe have work WiFi blacklisted so it happens everywhere except when I'm at work.

I don't know about changing tone but I have used Adobe Podcast editor and it allows you adjust the words and rearrange what you said so you can cut "umms" and stuff. I know they are constantly adding features so I don't know if you can improve cadence and stuff but worth looking at if you have adobe stuff

Just a fun aside: Islam is responsible for the foundations of algebra and the al in algorithm is of the same Arabic root.

I'm not an Imam but I feel like if someone wanted to justify using a Western created algorithm they could just say "well technically this is just built on our initial work"
