Was tempted to downvote you

I agree with the sentiment behind:

chill, internet points aren’t a big deal

I understand wanting other people to support a cause you have passion about. I also understand being affected by people’s nagative reactions to your contributions, comments, or intent.

I encourage building some defenses, trying to be self aware when this happens, and try to remember this doesn’t really matter. Good thoughts, reason, logic, and civil discourse is fun/challenging/important.

I definitely have unpopular opinions here. I keep asking loads of questions trying to pry at why/how people think what they do, especially if it’s the opposite of me. I’m not interested in changing their minds, I don’t care. I want to know how their mind works, why they think the way they do, and should I reconsider my positions and thoughts based on some perspective I didn’t have.

Also, sometimes people use votes for agreement/disagreement, and sometimes its to represent they want to see more or less of something. It can be difficult to tell the difference when the two ideas aren’t the same. Sometimes I don’t disagree with a person, I just wish convey I’d like to see less of that, like super low effort shitty comments. Unless they’re really funny, then by all means :)

I know this will sound dumb, but you can ask one of the LLMs you make you one based on similar resumes and applications for the same job you want.

Then, modify it to be your own. Maybe a touch more than changing the name ;)

At least it’s a starting point.

Lol,.I know.

I already have Google and MS accounts,.so I use those when needed.

Well, since no one offered any suggestions on the actual cover letter content. Gotta start somewhere.

You could also roll through linkedin and see other examples of resumes, but people usually tailor the cover letter to the job they are applying for.

I ask LLMs stuff all the time for a starting point, and then narrow my search so I don’t go off entirely made up crap (if it did).

Here’s some thoughts based on my life experience:

• employers want people who show up. If you have a good work ethic, don’t call in sick for BS reasons, then put in there that you care about being a contributor, you’re reliable, and work in good-faith.

• employers like people with soft skills (communication, teamwork, problem solving, critical thinking). I don’t think this is limited to information or office workers. Express that you can communicate and manage expectations with managers, coworkers, and you are a problem solver instead of a drone who asks a leader for help for every problem (unless that’s what they want of you).

• employers will likely appreciate if you tailor the letter to their business. Look up what they do, what they care about, and what their mission is (also if they have corporate mission statements, value statements, ethics statements, etc). Their mission isn’t just to make money (yes it is), but to be the best maker/doer of their product/industry. Express how you can help them accomplish their mission and add value to the company.

Since you mentioned self-study, watch videos about these things if you want to be bored, but ahead of your peers.

I bet you get interviews by including these things and making sure to you spell check. It’s amazing how many people don’t care enough to check over their application, which is an instant red flag for hiring. Also, there’s shit tons of services that offer resume reviews.

Good luck!

Here’s some opposition quotes:

several well-known academic leaders have expressed their opposition. Let’s delve into their viewpoints:

Moira Marsh, a librarian at Indiana University and president of the Indiana Conference of the American Association of University Professors, opposes the bill. She argues that it would have a chilling effect on teaching and research at all levels. The proposed policy could effectively eliminate tenure, a status that traditionally protects faculty from being terminated based on their teaching and research.

Robert Eno, an officer of the IU-Bloomington chapter of the American Association of University Professors, also criticizes the bill. He believes that the bill would make it easier to fire veteran faculty members based on their expressed viewpoints. By potentially restricting academic freedom, the bill could harm the quality of education and research within Indiana campuses.

I have not yet found instances where professors were terminated due to personal view points, but that would require finding them before the concept of tenure was established.

Not surprisingly, I cannot find any supporters of elimination of tenure who work in academia and are not politicians.

I’d like to find some concrete support for this idea that isn’t totally motivated by political division, conservative vs prog/lib. 🤔

So three people down voted a question, but didn’t take the time to respond…

Does that mean, no interest in info security,? Or disagrees with post? Or wants to see less posts about community interests?

Indeed.

In 1960, the Aral Sea had been the world’s fourth-largest lake with an area of 68,000 km2 (26,000 sq mi) and a volume of 1,100 km3 (260 cu mi). By 1998, it had dropped to 28,687 km2 (11,076 sq mi) and eighth largest. - Wikipedia
