My resume scored 90/100. Oh wait 74. No – 88"]]></title><description><![CDATA[
<p>Disregarding the fact that this thing is completely broken, its grading rubric is ridiculous to begin with (as was mentioned in the article itself, but I must reiterate how completely stupid this is):<p>> 35 points for open source contributions<p>> 30 for personal projects<p>I don't contribute to open source or have personal projects because I don't spend my free time doing what I do 40 hours a week to make a living. My 15 years of work experience is worth a maximum of 25%, so any company using this idiotic system would pass on me immediately. Open source and personal projects are fine, but in no sane world are they worth 65% of a resume's score.</p>

<p>> Gulf of America is a more inclusive name anyway since both USA and Mexico are part of North America<p>gulf of america is not more inclusive. the "renaming" was not meant to be inclusive, it was very clearly meant to be divisive.<p>this is a similar argument to one often used when people call canadians americans: "umm, ackshully, canada is in north america, so it's correct to call them americans"<p>and of course the flaw in that argument is that literally nobody on earth considers canadians to be americans except people on the internet trying to sound smart.</p>

<p>i’ve been doing the same for a few years now. wireguard’s “on demand” feature is perfect for this. the odd time i’ll have to shut it off to get through a captive wifi portal, but otherwise it (along with browser ad blockers) has made mobile browsing significantly less terrible</p>

<p>we have these scooters in my (very touristy) town. they make an annoying “<i>bing bong</i> avoid sidewalks” sound when driven on the sidewalk, but that’s it. they don’t limit the speed to something annoying/reasonable like 3-4kph. tourists constantly blasting by people on the sidewalk, it’s not surprising to me that this sort of thing happens.</p>
