That’s hard to wrap my head around lol, but thank you for the explanation

Would you not just be moved to a different time? Like the 4th dimension is time right? So you’d just be in another time period, in a different place.

I feel like it’s a harmless joke

Hol up

Psh, showing a screenshot? Consider yourself doxxed loser, I’m hacking into ur mainframe as we speak/s

KILLING BUGS AND ROBOTS FOR DEMOCRACY!!! HAIL SUPER EARTH!!!

a bunch of shitheads spammed CSAM on lemmy communities, and since lemmy caches images that have been federated, a lot of the big servers basically had to fully purge their images

Columbus and his men killed a lot of people brutally. He wasn’t really a conqueror, more a murderer and a monster

Jfc that election cycle was 7 years ago, kill me

Cool, I was wondering about that

I mean I wouldn’t pick this photo, but there are some that look very real that I’ve seen. Like I said, it’s an option. Definitely wouldn’t be my first option, but if I had nothing else, it could work if executed properly.

New devs today definitely have to care more about LinkedIn than older devs, most older devs can hop from job to job with referrals from dev friends or something similar. The tech boom and venture capitalist funding of the tech industry is starting to die out, which is making jobs in this industry a lot harder to find. So having something like an incredibly polished LinkedIn and resume can be the thing that make you stand out in the crowd of new devs.

Once you’re established you definitely need LinkedIn less. With the job I have now, I have a few friends who could give me referrals and put in a good word for me, but that was not the case at my old job. And before this job I was a junior Dev so my experience wasn’t that impressive.

I think the company I worked at previously was stratified in a way that intentionally prevented people from being able to get good referrals. Most of the devs I knew worked at where I worked, and a lot of them didn’t leave until after we lost touch. I think once you’re established you can get referrals for people, but when you’re just starting out it’s not that easy. That can make it really hard for a new dev looking for a job, and/or a jr.dev looking for a better job. I was a jr.dev trapped with no referrals, in a horrible job that overworked me, and the only place that I was able to find a good job was through linkedin’s listings. The only thing I could do was make my LinkedIn profile really polished to stand out amongst the crowd

I found my current, very nice (for my area) dev job through linkedin. When I applied via services like indeed, I would almost never hear back. I heard back from one company and I didn’t get the job.

I am curious what you would do instead. How do you and your colleagues usually search for jobs? I’m always open to hear about better methods of job searching.

Tbh as a young dev without a lot of experience in today’s market (added because of some of the comments), you need to have a professional LinkedIn persona, and that’s true with many jobs. I can see this being useful for those who can’t afford/don’t have access to a way to get a good headshot.

That being said I’d be wary of what service you use to make a headshot, because a lot of them will probably use your data to train their AI, and/or steal the data from your cellphone if it’s an app

No you see it actually goes both ways I was here yesterday

Fun fact concrete has cement in it, but cement is not concrete.

Concrete is cement and other materials added either as filler or reinforcement

Still a funny meme tho
