@bradleyandroos Hey, thanks! You learn very quickly if you are in a hiring role that most candidates are not what you are used to seeing at work — and for good reason, because they get screened out. LLMs are making that screening difficult for many types of work.


@ootd Hm, I did not expect to see AI slop in the micro.blog Discovery feed. And the blog is… Made by Bear not Hugo? Odd.


@JohnBrady You are in for a treat! An uneven one, especially with some of the footnotes, but it is a proper good book that has aged all too well.


@philosopher Not any more, since my oldest confiscated it. Just as well, she draws a lot and gets much more use out of it than I ever would.


@JohnBrady 😍


@MitchWagner I love that style of hotels. Omni Shoreham in DC is similar. Makes business travel so much more bearable.


@JohnBrady @annahavron It’s been a while since I even hand a landline, but if we are ever to get one again we’ll get at least one rotary phone with that adapter! The last landline handset we had was a horrible slow wireless mess.


@JohnBrady Thank you for this recommendation, it is now in my bookshop list! I can only agree that the way most clinical trials are run and presented is far from what would generally be considered science.


@yourstruly On one hand, I very much agree with the sentiment. On the other, I recoil at the AI-styled writing, even if it wasn’t all AI.


@warner Yep. Even a broken clock is right twice a day!
