I move around every 4 months in the US. I stay in long-term Airbnbs (min 1 month stay). I work remote; so, the issue I mostly deal with is my working setup. No standing desk, comfortable chair, multi-monitor setup (using portable external monitor), etc.

Otherwise, the surroundings of the place I stay at is always a gamble. You never know if its a loud or safe neighborhood just by looking at the posting or street view on google maps. Sometimes there could be construction going on next door.

Eating around and exploring the country is the best part.

You are supposed to just sit at the cemetery not dig holes

You won! Blacklisting the module worked!!

Thank you!!!

xinput --disable is not working due to Wayland

There is no option in BIOS to disable touch input.

The stackexchange solution didnt work. When I tried to set it to unbind, Im getting permission denied even as root.

Touchscreen is physically damaged.

No. The touch panel is making ghost inputs. So, I want to get a DE without touch support or need to figure out how I can disable touch input.

I already use vnStat with Debian. Was wondering if theres an alternative for Windows

I was looking for something more simple like vnStat

I meant like Workday, Greenhouse, ADP, etc.

Wouldn’t the application software filter out the keywords from the description?

Appreciate it

The same question would apply to skills mentioned in the experience section–unless the experience section is nothing but a description of use of those skills.

That’s why I said if the skill is listed as a description in the experience (not literally the keyword), the “time range” would give you somewhat of an idea about the person. Key here is not listing just the skill, but what they actually did with that skill.

It seems as if you and I may be valuing the experience section in different ways.

If you are a recruiter/manager that gives a call to everyone, then I appreciate what you do. But, wouldn’t your job be much easier if you are able to understand the candidate’s skill from the description without even talking to them? Filtering out inexperienced people would be much easier instead of just going by the skills section.

But the direct answer to your question is in an interview. If you assert both valuable skills and experience, then you will get pressed to demonstrate or explain those face-to-face.

In the current market for IT folks, its not easy to get an interview. So you wanna give as much information in the resume to get that first call. This is from my personal experience in the last 6-10 months

I dont use a Skills section at all in my resume. How do you determine the quality of skills based on just keywords in the skills section?

In description if you show that you worked in certain technology for “this” long, you would get somewhat an idea of how skilled that person is in that tech

Lets say I put Office in skills section, you wouldnt know how skilled I am in office. I might have only worked with it for a month. And I am talking about resume without any fancy graphics with bar graph to show the skill level

I understand. But, consultants could work on so many various things based on the project. Its better to provide context of the role and what industry that project was instead of only showing one block of text.

As an example, If I worked at a company for 2 years, I could have used GitHub for 3 months in one project and used GitLab for 6 months in another project. If I write both of them in the same block, you would think I have 2 years of experience in both which is not accurate.

Obviously there are ways you can write that in the description. I was just wondering if there are options to have nested experience.

This is very close. The only thing missing is job title for the parent along with the company name for each nested experience

Somewhat unrelated question:

How do you list experience based on projects under single employer with timeline?

Right now I have it like this:

• Consultant

  Employer - 2020 - 2023

  • Developer - June 2023 to August 2023
    • Description 1
    • Description 2
  • Analyst - March 2021 - May 2022
    • Description 1

I havent found any resume template that can handle this (nested experience) automatically

Someone has started a new repo for tracking these: https://github.com/ssddanbrown/Open-Source-Confusion-Cases

Not really reporting but, can spread awareness

Edit: “someone” is the developer of BookStack

Here is a list of websites I had saved from Reddit about 8 years ago. Apologies in advance, I haven’t checked any of the URLs if they are still valid.
