LOL we got one from The Democratic Republic of Korea! They’re not even hiding anymore 😂😂😂

Why’s it so hard to get a job in 2026, reason number 10364:
One job posting, 200 applications

Looking through the applications:
- at least person applied multiple times
- 90% are outside geographic area even though it’s a regional position and states hybrid work in the posting.
- 5% are from international people

I didn’t have time to sort through to see how many of the applications are bots/scams.

I keep seeing AI enthusiasts say stuff like “it deleted my production database and set fire to my servers but this is truly the future of software engineering” and given the other place where this phenomenon has popped up, I would like to henceforth refer to it as Tesla Ownership Syndrome

Today was the 40h of work in 4h it feels like. I’m exhausted!

People with #adhd have three types of workday:

* Get absolutely nothing done
* Get 4 hours of work done at a random point in time
* Get 40 hours of work done in 4 hours

All types are sprinkled with work unrelated sidequests

Substack promoted Andrew Tate as their #1 "bestseller" last week. Cool company. Great leadership.

So I went ahead and made a browser extension.

Kill Yr Substack intercepts every Substack link (even on custom domains) and redirects it to `archive.is`.

Substack's numbers go down. You still get to read the thing tho.

Update: If you have problems with `archive.is`, Ghost Archive is now available as an alternative redirect as of version 1.2.1.
