Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

And his stat goals just got adjusted to target total resumes submitted rather than total placements achieved.

These ghost jobs are just a legalized form of fraud, I swear.

And then the recruiter ghosts me! I hate this shit. Defrauding the desperate. Maybe in 10 years someone will get a fine.

I wonder how much if it is companies posting "jobs" due to visa requirements for someone who is already working there. PERM requires job postings, I believe there are some similar requirements for H1B as well.

There are definitely structural reasons for companies to post job openings without any intention of hiring based on those postings. Even just wanting leverage in negotiations with potential inside hires would be enough. Job postings have become at least partially decoupled from the actual demand for jobs.

I’d assumed it was to pad out statistics to signal growth to investors. So these jobs are part of a sales pitch that could be real in the event that an investor bites. These are the jobs we would post if we had the budget.
