People are ALWAYS hiring and January can be good because the headcount they got approved for 2022 is just getting opened up.

Thanks. Actually checked it out and found one interesting opening and one I'll be talking about today because of a radically bad candidate experience.

I just installed Google's plugin. Used to be that they only put ads in the sidebar, but this is new. OTOH, I made like $13 bucks overnight with the traffic this drove. :-)

I'll look at my options to control location in the plugin. Right now it's just letting them "optimize" placement.

Mostly, I've had a half dozen blogs over the last 26 years. This might feel spammy because I recently migrated from a static site back to WordPress, and have been slowly adding back old content from that site and the one it replaced, so there's not a ton of content right now.

I did. I'm also tracking those in a spam section of each update.

If you want REALLY bad options, post to Career Builder. Last time I did, I got approached about jobs in insurance sales, door-to-door sales, and cashing checks for forging rings.

Meanwhile Amazon has posters in its elevators all over campus for an info session next week about new part-time SDE roles with full-time benefits.

Only for sde 2's and up apparently...

I actually did a MindCamp session on making your own energy drinks 6+ years ago. The live demo/taster was a double-shot mocha with 150 mg of powdered caffeine (in solution), a bottle of shelf-stable chocolate milk (because I was at a conf), and a tablespoon of Torani Kahlua-flavored syrup.

Dude! I remember that! You had more than the LD50 of caffeine for the entire conference in the canister.

For C720s, I like distroshare.com. It has a number of Linux distros that have been optimized for the C720. I'll actually be installing their distro of ElementaryOS on a C720 tonight for a kid in our CoderDojo group.

FWIW, this is the post: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/one-weird-rule-job-post-headl...

I can testify to that.

I had done some SharePoint front end design when I was on an editorial team and we needed some features in our SharePoint site in 2008, but had to take any mention of SharePoint out of my resume because I got too many contacts from recruiters looking for a SharePoint architect.

I'm also a Zend Certified Engineer in PHP (don't hate). I'd never worked with Zend Framework, but would get very regular recruiter contacts because they didn't know the difference between "Zend" (a company) and "Zend Framework" (an MVC framework that was just one of their products).

Maybe I'm thick. The article is dated February 2014, it says flexbox "currently lacks browser support, mainly in IE (version 10 has partial support and full support won't arrive until version 11). Chrome, Safari and Firefox have support but with browser vendor prefixes."

IE11 came out in preview in June 2013, released officially in November 2013, and at least IE and Mozilla are currently supporting it unprefixed (though Mozilla's multi-line flexbox fails last time I checked). This article is over 3 months out of date, if not more, but being presented as new and current.
