As a hiring manager for nearly 4 years straight, dealing with way way more than 100 applicants for some positions, I know it takes minutes at most.

All hiring systems have ways to send batch emails to rejected candidates.

If you don’t have a hiring system for some reason, it’s still just hitting reply/ctrl-v/send to each applicant you move out of the “possible candidate” inbox.

Giving a reason “why” tends to hit people badly if they didn’t specifically ask, so a stock response is not only easy to give, but the best response. Whether and how to respond in more detail to people asking for “why”, is a less easy decision but good if you are able to.

You and what army?

There are a few benign-ish ways this happens, based on my experience from working on “the other side”. They reflect shittily on the hiring manager, but not on you:

You got no immediate rejection because they did consider you valid for the position, just not first place. Then they got a match on the first place and stopped giving a shit about the applicant backlog.

They got too many applicants and threw half in the garbage.

Upper management put a freeze, or reduction, on hiring right as they put an ad out.

They have a person already picked for the position, but they will get in legal or corporate or PR trouble if they don’t pretend to do a proper hiring process.

Their application process, human or computer, lost your CV.

My mind has been shattered.

For the same reason cows moo but a moose don’t cow.

They’re given as algebraic, which are countably infinite since they can be mapped 1-to-1 with integers.

While tools exist, like people already commented, remember that the result may not be what you expect.

A recreation whether by AI or a skilled voice actor will have slightly different intonations, emphasis, tempo variations, pauses and lack of pauses that are not your granfather’s. It is very likely to feel flat and wrong in an unpleasant way.

Nobody needed to know that

Also in article, Elon Musk shits himself loudly again hoping someone will pay attention to him.

Then why do they need to be ruled by Moscow?

It’s suppsed to go like this

I grew up in casette and CD era, so I use that for comparison. It’s a bit of a stretch, but it works for me:

An album or cassette had roughly 10-20 songs and cost (in today’s inflation) roughly £5. Not all songs were bangers so I round it all to £0.5 per song.

How many listens to be “worth it” I think is how much listen I would get out of it before I would happily buy a new one if it wore out or broke. So at least 50.

At price of £0.99, I think a song is worth it at 100 listens.

Though songs bought to support indie artists are worth it immediately. :)

That sounds utterly evil

I try.

Yes hello

Absolutely! The odds are, as they say “astronomical”. That goes for all scenarios where a planet sized rock doots our sun in general.

We are going to collide with the Andromeda galaxy maybe 1 billion years before the sun fizzles out. Something there with opposite galactic orbit from us could smack into our sun at over 700 km/s.

Ah, but at what speed?

• Putin makes a big deal out of how fighting in Ukraine is by volunteers and contained so that “regular russians” are safe. This fight goes on in areas defended by conscripted soldiers, breaking that safety layer.

Spreading outrageous lies that result in harassment and violence is clearly not something to tolerate.

The US is not a good example to bring up if you want to argue it is fine to allow it.
