I thought someone hacked my account I didn't recognize the post lol.

And yes, every single part of job searching is bad for the job seekers because any product is going to be marketed towards the HR department.

It looks like you buffer overflowed, as your post of the news article just cuts off mid word, and various lemmy apps/instances still occasionally have a few bugs connecting replies to correct posts and what not.

Yeah, Frick. Or rather the buffer didn't overflow. Can you charafter count it for me?

Edit: seems to be around 10163 characters, as copied from my post from the Lemmy web interface. Kind of an arbitrary number.

Most of it's there anyway.
