IIRC mine (as an employee, not HR) verified some stuff on my CV (education details I think).


Have you heard the joke about the SEO manager who walks into a bar pub saloon watering hole place to meet friends great cocktails beer on tap?


There’s a certain irony in bemoaning subscription news paywalls on an article about the alternative, unsavory monetization paradigm…


So it’s a security camera pointing at your screen, but with AI involved.

Honestly though, this sounds like the kind of thing you could hack together with a shell script and OCR on a *NIX system in an afternoon. Cronjob to take screenshots and run them through OCR, keywords to a database. Add hooks to your window manager to take additional screenshots on relevant events (change desktop, application opens/new window on screen, etc.).


For the Spotlight issue, was this certainly a local change without consent, or was it a change in the way the query is processed on Apple’s servers?

There is functionally no difference but it’s a big philosphical difference.


If you find yourself running the same set of commands over and over, throw 'em in a shell script and keybind it! It may be obvious, but good to keep in mind.

One fun one is to pipe clipboard to qrencode — it’s a simple and (nearly) universally supported way of getting a URL, etc., from a laptop/desktop to a phone.

Another great one is to take a screenshot, upload to your server, and put the URL in the paste buffer. Bonus points to put the URL in the middle click buffer and the image itself in the ctrl-v buffer.



I share via Signal, and with links to my Immich instance (sent over Signal). Certainly susceptible to security problems since yours truly set it up, but what you gonna do…


They appear to also have blocklists independent of “shit ton of traffic.” I have a VPN to my VPS (Oracle), which has a public IP (and I’m the only user). I also get whoa pardner’d when going through that VPN.

Perhaps I fall into the “we don’t want other people scraping our site unless they pay” category though. I would make sense to just block off all VPS/cloud IP blocks (e.g., AWS, Azure, Oracle, Google Cloud…).


Don’t you already need your company email for verification? Mapping company email to real name is obviously trivial for your employer…
