I'm just saying the highlighted bits there describe exactly what every single person that's graduated college in the past five or so years believes happens when they submit their resume to a private company.
The real kicker there is the OPM calculates who to hire based on self-assessments ("resume copy pasting" is the first gate) and then adds in veterans preference where the entire candidate pool for every OPM regulated job is 296 veterans who self-assessed themselves as masters of the universe and 4 regular people.
I dont think hiring in the real world are really done through job applications
It's more through knowing people then going thru this process as a facade
Hence the post the position at the middle of the night thing (but in private sector you can just hire who you want it doesn't have to be so disguised like this)
Last thing is I've noticed people who are hired the "right" way (aka they applied, didn't know anybody, went through interviews and stuff) don't really "stick" - aka in layoffs they are first to get cut even if they are good and are making real contributions
Finished the second Thiel one-hour interview. Apparently there is another one coming from this same interviewer.
I have to say this one was pretty odd. The interviewer seemed to want to talk about a lot of vaguely-spiritual, Christian theology-type concepts. It's all very abstract and not very practical other than as a commentary on the fact that Thiel seems to think a lot about existential threats to humanity and about scientific progress and how the two might go hand-in-hand.
There was one interesting moment where Thiel talks about the pandemic - he seems to view COVID as a bioweapon that came from a lab. Which I have to say is interesting for a fairly mainstream/traditional podcast/interviewer format. I imagine he talked about this extensively on Rogan lol
Real Thielbux recipients have to have a deep knowledge of the works of Renee Girard and spend the majority of their time pondering Christian eschatology.
you literally act like Russian did nothing wrong. fucking dumb fuck gulping down shaky ahistorical anecdotes like he gulps down tucker carlson and peter theil cum
do you think invading ukraine with a plainclothes army and annexing crimea was okay? totally not a "destabilizing act bringing us closer to Ww3" the way you describe Biden's reactions to this madness as the REAAAL problem. Even though all of NATO including the sec gen has said they're committed to protecting Ukraine SINCE DAY ONE
But no you like simple answers to complex questions, so 'Biden did this!!!'' is your comfort zone
ot to mention your dumbass misundersting of the logistics involved.
Giving a country , say , $500m of artillery shells that YOU WERE GOING TO HAVE TO PAY TO DISPOSE OF, so actually SAVING MONEY is technically $500m in aid to Ukraine.
YOUR DUMB ASS sees a headline like that and goes "omg why are we sending ukraine $500m in cash"
SOMETHING LIKE 80% of US aid was as described above
you are so wrong, so far removed from the truth, it's fucking depressing that people lik you exist tbh
