  • I used LLMs (gpt4.5-preview) to write portions of my resume. But I also used a paid service that uses AI to supposedly scan your resume in the same fashion these HR tools do - and gives recommendations on improving to better get past the filters. I’m early in the process but I’m getting a solid amount of HR interviews scheduled, and a technical interview tomorrow.

    My point is, I don’t think using AI in a resume is necessarily a bad thing so long as you go into it with the intention of getting past filters.

    It sucks that job searching has devolved to SEO-spam and AI hallucinations but here we are.



  • I recognize this is a “feature” but I think it should be treated like a bug, or at least let us turn it off!!

    Whatever egghead came up with the “keyboard hot zone” that dynamically (and invisibly) increases the size of the keys based on what it thinks you’ll type deserves to be tarred and feathered. Problem is, it’s always fucking wrong. It happened already typing this text, the above “increases” was first typed as “increased” because it expected “d” and thus made the “d” key zone slightly larger and the “s” zone slightly smaller. I tried typing “NCASE”, like the PC case brand, the other day, and I had to try repeatedly to get the “s” key to pop. I kept hitting the “a” key because it expected “NCAA” and increased that key zone.

    Just the iPhone keyboard overall is bad. Inconsistent layouts based on where you’re typing. No number row. No period/comma (unless you’re typing a website). Just why.
