Hype is a funny thing. Sometimes you find yourself in a Godfather Part 2 situation where the hype is totally justified. You hear about it. You try it. Life is changed. Hooray!

Other times, you find yourself in more of an Avatar: The Way of Water situation…where everyone around you is muttering things like “stunningly immersive,” and you’re on the sidelines wondering how much time you can spend watching blue aliens be bad at swimming.

Recently someone asked me if one of the jobs I had shared (something I do every week) was open to remote folks. While I work hard to ensure my weekly list of jobs only includes remote-friendly opportunities, this particular role was listed as being in-office.

However, I offered the following advice based on my personal experience and what I’ve seen from other folks over the years: Even when a job is listed as being “in office,” it’s still possible to get the company to consider a remote employee. 

Solix, a leading provider of data management and integration solutions, recently presented to the 54th IT Press Tour, sharing insights into how their solutions can help developers, engineers, and architects organize enterprise data and optimize infrastructure.

In the course of talking about job hunting with friends, colleagues, and randos on Slack and elsewhere, I end up talking about resumes. A lot. There is, (in my (not so) humble) opinion, a sizeable misunderstanding about what resumes are, what they do, how they should look, the effort one should (or shouldn’t) put into creating them, and more.

Given the current period of churn in the tech industry and the resulting uptick in the frequency with which I’m having these types of conversations, I decided to commit to what’s become a standard part of my “so you’re looking for a new job?” shpiel to paper (or at least electrons).

Hey there! Welcome back to another informative and exciting blog. Grab a drink, get cozy, and let’s dive into a world of Generative AI. Enjoy the blog!

Generative AI, including generative artificial intelligence, has reached unprecedented heights with the introduction of GPT-4, a multimodal language model that stands as the most advanced iteration to date. Its capabilities extend far beyond text generation, encompassing language translation, creative content creation, and even image-based inputs.

In last week’s post, as I was talking about job descriptions, I asked a question I feel is key to a successful job search:

“Do you like the company because of it’s culture, creation, community, calling, or some other Aspect? Are you intrigued enough to want to find out more? “

In today's fast-paced world, we're bombarded with more information than we can handle. We’re increasingly getting used to receiving more information in less time, leading to frustration when having to read extensive documents or books. That's where extractive summarization steps in. To get to the heart of a text, the process pulls out key sentences from an article, piece, or page to give us a snapshot of its most important points. 

For anyone needing to understand big documents without reading every word, this is a game changer.
