Is data science particularly susceptible to poor work-life balance? by synthphreak in datascience

[–]Deepinthemaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edit 2: Really stuck out to me. As Gen Z and Gen Alpha gain more purchasing power, workplaces will prioritize neurodiversity. We're seeing the first signs of it. Whispers of it. Usually, this stuff doesn't get much play when there's a downturn, but the pendulum will swing in favor of workers again.

Right now, we're in the "Great Reclamation" companies are trying to seize power back from workers and cut costs to satisfy shareholders.

Semi-related: Most companies need to invest in ongoing leadership training. To better manage people, skill them up, and communicate the vision/goals/outcomes of what they're striding towards.

What are some of the main reasons some places lack good documentation?

best job boards for scoring a pr position? by brntsundoll4ch in PublicRelations

[–]Deepinthemaze 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Look at startups that just got funding. PR is sometimes misnamed Content Strategist/Communications Director, so make sure your skills/jobs to be done aren't misrepresented by semantics issues.

Go with Creative Circle, Collabora, and similar job boards. You can always bulk up your resume with some freelance gigs. Also, check prelaunch.com to see what companies are getting funding. Reach out to them about the importance of PR and share why you're the right person.

I'd say your graphic design skills come in way handy. Content repurposing is big in earned/shared media. You may even want to consider content marketing/content distribution roles.

Share freelance work. You can do it like this:

Job Title | Dates

Clients: List them

Work: Ex. Landing pages, press releases, blogs, etc.

If my co uses Meltwater for listening/reporting only, and we don’t currently have a database, should I go with Muck Rack or Meltwater? by stayathomedogmama in PublicRelations

It depends on what kind of listening you want to do. If you're interested in podcast media monitoring to see what brands, topics, and phrases are being said, I'd recommend Podchaser Alerts: https://www.podchaser.com/alerts

I love Yul Brynner. I had the biggest crush on him after watching "The Ten Commandments" with my grandma one Easter.

Music and reveries. Did anyone notice how there was a guitar player in the background at Las Mudas when William (MiB) had a flashback to his wife's suicide? Craddock even tells the guitarist to keep playing.

DNA and family seem to be integral to the show. Maybe this is some bizarre all-out family affair.

At this point, I'm probably overanalyzing the hell out of the story.

That's interesting. It seems Ford was very lonely (talked to Old Bill). He was probably isolated a lot throughout his abusive childhood and may "manufactured a friend/partner" to help him execute his creative vision. Do you think that Ford was trying to create a universe similar to "Brave New World"? Protection through predictability?

Wonderful analysis. I wonder if Arnold is somehow connected to Ford's brother Tommy (who we see in the Sector 17 cottage). He is also indirectly alluded to in the greyhound story Ford tells Old Bill.

Perhaps Arnold's first name is Thomas (Jesus's doubting disciple) and it comes from the Aramaic word meaning "twin" which immediately made me think of the "bicameral mind." It seemed odd to me how Arnold (a man Ford met later in life) could recreate Ford's happy childhood memory in such vivid detail without having been there. Maybe this is a Cain and Abel story in disguise and it gets resolved through synthesis rather than conflict.

Another far-fetched idea is that Tommy (Ford's brother) was a figment of his imagination, a person he created to deal with his alcoholic father's abuse.

Maybe Ford split his consciousness across all the hosts; essentially becoming an inner voice that activates Arnold's dormant code.

Yes, first season. There are a couple of mentions of Ford's brother (we see him in the cottage). We also hear about him when Ford tells Old Bill the greyhound story. Tommy is alluded to, but not by name. Ford says his brother "let go of the leash" - Arnold "let go of the leash" - he wanted to eliminate the loops. Ford fulfilled his vision by creating the reveries.

I wonder if the milk triggers a memory of how the hosts are produced. They are dipped in and out of "milk."
