How reliable do you think those numbers are?

Again, why? Both of those "attitudes" are reasonable.

We do live in the times of privacy exchanged for service. At least this service directly impacts my ability to earn money off that exchange.

LInkedIn is also objectively better at everything you use LinkedIn for: with the exception of, you guessed it, privacy. The only real option you have here is to not use it (and accept you are putting yourself at a disadvantage)

I get the desire to retain privacy, and to not use a product that goes against your code. I just think your reaction to a perfectly reasonable, and entirely predictable response is perhaps naive? Or just unwarranted. You priority privacy over maximising salary potential - an entirely reasonable thing, but not one most people would do.

Hey I'm not discriminating, I think US and China compete very well on prison populations.

Why does that piss you off? It sounds like you had a conversation. Maybe he did get it, just thought you were wrong and/or overweighting things you found important, that he did not.

If you want to hamstring your career by not having a presence on the world's biggest careers website then that's perfectly okay - but I do not think a professor at University should be advising that course and would be failing their students if they did.

I am not saying you're wrong, and I do understand the reasons you might choose this path - but that doesn't mean you're right and that your choices are good advice for everyone.

Okay fair point. What about regular old prison labour?

I don't get it, what's cringe about making a joke out of people's selfish and exaggerated behaviour?

You must be fun at parties.

Who hurt you?

Ha I still can't see it! Maybe it's cus I'm on a phone....but to me, the grain looks bang on, even with the curvature

It doesn't? Looks fine to me

No

That's funny.

You're either fucking stupid, or just stupid enough to think your argument is reasonable.

That's like saying retail was the problem because one of the dudes in the mob was a shop keeper. Look beyond the job.

Just beware the bias here. Only pointing this out for people working against their agenda doesn't mean there isn't the same going on for the other side...just that they aren't going to point it out as it doesn't help their agenda.

My grayjay hasn't worked for a couple of weeks now, "block attempt detected" warning and then the video starts over.

Asking mastodon users whether they'd choose AI over Privacy is like asking Elon Musk if he'd rather end poverty or buy another mega yacht.

You're right, but "incompetence" seems harsh. Maybe I'm just sensitive today.

// because I said so.

Ah gotcha, I'll look into it as wasn't aware of this!
