There are not enough hundred dollar bills in the world to wipe off the stench of being branded a doody-head by the fediverse.
Thank you for your well thought out response to what might otherwise be dismissed as a trolling attempt.

- Comment on Is there a word, phrase, or trope for an idea that gets more popular the more it fails? 5 weeks ago:
Sounds about right. This keeps happening at my job, executives throwing good money after bad in an attempt to get some return on their investment. If we had just cut our losses years ago we’d be in a much better place now.
- Comment on What positive things do you expect from Trumps upcoming four years? 1 month ago:
Minorities. Immigrants. Illegals. The poor. The middle class. Big tech. The economy. China. India. They will always find something.
- Comment on What is your pet peeve in 2024? 1 month ago:
Google is so bad now and has been for a while, it’s tough to believe its name is still synonymous with search.
I’ve been toying with the idea of using Kagi, but paying for a search engine is still such a foreign concept for me. I think if you can find a good SearXNG instance you’ll have a much better time.

Be careful updating the firmware on those, friend of mine ended up having to finger his named pipe. You don’t know him, he goes to a different school.

He is immortal; he has inside him blood of Kings; he has no rival (except when he does); no man can be his equal.

- Comment on Why isn't apple a popular ice cream flavor? 2 months ago:
I feel silly asking since you mentioned Florida, but do they use real oranges? Any time I’ve ever seen or tasted orange ice cream it was always that fake stuff.

The ol’ Uno reverso countersquat technique, I like it
- Comment on Mentorship Monday - Discussions for career and learning! 7 months ago:
It’s an odd position to be in; I work in the private sector but my company deals almost exclusively with government and NGO contracts, so at times I feel like I’m public sector.
What I’ve noticed is that even though the desired outcome is nearly identical for both sectors, the buzz words associated with each is what determines who responds to my job applications. As an example:
Private: IaC and Policy-as-Code, supply chain and software composition analysis, SAST, DAST, etc.
Public: Compliance automation, risk management frameworks, risk quantification (this one has generated a lot of excitement recently), etc.
This is purely anecdotal, but you may find adjusting your resume to include some of these buzzwords as applicable to the industry to which you are applying may help you get your foot in the door.
To reiterate, yes I know in the end all of these companies strive toward the same goals, whether it be passing audits or being able to demonstrate prudent security practices to clients, sometimes the hiring manager is looking for specific terminology and will discard any applications that exclude it.
